Value Collection 872411BR Hex Socket Cap Screw 5/8-11

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 872411BR is a hex socket cap screw designed for high-strength fastening in mechanical, structural, and industrial assemblies. Built from alloy steel with a zinc-plated finish, this fastener resists corrosion while providing the tensile strength required for demanding applications. The 5/8-11 UNC thread and 1-1/4 inch length under head make it a standard choice for medium-to-heavy load connections. Fully threaded along its length, it accepts a 1/2 inch hex drive and conforms to ASME B18.8 and ASTM A574 standards, which define dimensional and mechanical property requirements for socket cap screws.

This fastener is suited for use in manufacturing, maintenance, and repair operations where high clamping force is needed. Common applications include machine frames, fixtures, jigs, gearboxes, and structural steel connections. It is typically installed by machinists, millwrights, pipefitters, or general maintenance technicians working in industrial or commercial settings. The zinc coating provides baseline corrosion protection for indoor and light outdoor environments.

Key Features

• Alloy steel construction meets ASTM A574 mechanical property requirements for socket cap screws
• Zinc-plated finish provides corrosion resistance for general-purpose environments
• Fully threaded 5/8-11 UNC shank for consistent thread engagement throughout fastened joint
• 1/2 inch hex drive compatible with standard hex keys and socket drive tools
• Conforms to ASME B18.8 dimensional standards for interchangeability and fit

Compatibility

Designed as a standard ASME B18.8 and ASTM A574 hex socket cap screw for use in any application requiring a 5/8-11 UNC fully threaded fastener with a 1-1/4 inch length under head.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 1/2 inch hex key or Allen-type socket drive. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before driving. Follow applicable torque specifications from engineering drawings or standard fastener torque tables for alloy steel 5/8-11 cap screws. Thread locking compound may be applied where vibration loosening is a concern.
