Value Collection 88182597 Hex Cap Screw 1/2-13 X 6 in Grade 5

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 88182597 is a partially threaded hex head cap screw designed for heavy-duty fastening in structural, mechanical, and industrial assemblies. It features a 1/2-13 UNC thread with a 6-inch length under the head and is manufactured from Grade 5 steel with a hot-dipped galvanized finish for corrosion resistance. The partial thread configuration allows for a smooth shank section that resists shear forces along the joint. This fastener is suited for applications where bolt clamp load and shear strength are both critical, and it is installed by mechanics, millwrights, pipefitters, and general trade contractors working in construction and industrial maintenance.

This cap screw is used across a wide range of trade applications including structural steel connections, equipment mounting, pipe support assemblies, and heavy mechanical fabrication. The hot-dipped galvanized finish makes it appropriate for outdoor, wet, or corrosive environments where bare steel fasteners would be unsuitable. It conforms to inch measurement standards with a 1/2-13 UNC thread form, making it compatible with standard UNC nuts and tapped holes of the same specification. Minimum order quantity is 25 pieces.

Key Features

• 1/2-13 UNC thread for compatibility with standard inch-series nuts and tapped holes
• 6-inch length under head provides deep engagement for thick-section assemblies
• Partially threaded shank resists shear loads at the joint interface
• Grade 5 steel construction meets medium-strength fastener requirements
• Hot-dipped galvanized finish provides corrosion protection in wet or outdoor environments

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 1/2-13 UNC hex nuts, washers, and tapped holes conforming to inch-series UNC thread standards.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified mechanics, ironworkers, or trade contractors using standard hex wrenches or impact tools sized for a 1/2-inch bolt. Torque to the fastener grade specification listed in applicable structural or mechanical codes. Always use a flat washer under the head when fastening into soft or dissimilar materials to distribute clamp load. Inspect the galvanized coating for damage before installation in corrosive or immersion environments.
