Value Collection 872423BR Hex Socket Cap Screw 5/8-11

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 872423BR is a hex socket cap screw designed for high-strength bolted connections in structural, mechanical, and industrial assemblies. It features a 5/8-11 UNC thread with a 2-3/4 inch length under the head and is driven by a 1/2 inch hex key. Manufactured from alloy steel with a zinc-plated finish, it meets ASME B18.8 and ASTM A574 standards, making it suitable for applications that require reliable clamping force and corrosion resistance. The partial threading allows for consistent engagement with mating threads and proper load distribution across the joint.

This screw is used in a wide range of commercial, industrial, and mechanical maintenance applications including equipment fabrication, machine assembly, and structural fastening. The zinc-plated alloy steel construction makes it appropriate for general indoor use and light-duty environments where mild corrosion protection is needed. Sold individually, with a minimum order quantity of 10 units per transaction.

Key Features

• 5/8-11 UNC thread for compatibility with standard inch-series nuts and tapped holes
• Partially threaded shank for accurate joint alignment and load distribution
• Alloy steel construction meets ASTM A574 for high-strength fastener requirements
• Zinc-plated finish provides baseline corrosion resistance for general service environments
• 1/2 inch hex drive for use with standard hex keys and socket drivers
• Conforms to ASME B18.8 dimensional standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-service fastener for applications requiring a 5/8-11 UNC hex socket cap screw with a 2-3/4 inch length under the head per ASME B18.8 and ASTM A574 specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists, millwrights, or maintenance technicians using a calibrated hex key or socket drive tool. Always clean and inspect the mating threaded hole before installation to ensure proper thread engagement. Follow applicable torque specifications from the equipment manufacturer or relevant industry standards for 5/8-11 alloy steel fasteners. Do not reuse fasteners that show signs of thread damage, corrosion, or deformation.
