Value Collection 88548383 Hex Cap Screw 7/16-14 Grade 5 Zinc 50pk

Product Description

The Value Collection 88548383 is a 7/16-14 x 1-3/4 inch hex head cap screw made from Grade 5 steel with a zinc-plated finish. It features partial threading and conforms to Unified National Coarse (UNC) thread standards. The zinc plating provides basic corrosion resistance for general-purpose indoor and light outdoor applications. This fastener is sold in a package of 50. Mechanical contractors, HVAC installers, plumbers, electricians, and maintenance technicians reach for Grade 5 zinc-plated hex cap screws for structural and equipment-mounting tasks where moderate tensile strength is required.

This screw is suited for general mechanical assembly, equipment mounting, structural connections, and maintenance applications across residential and light commercial trade work. The 7/16-14 UNC thread size and 1-3/4 inch length under the head make it a common choice for attaching brackets, flanges, panels, and mechanical components in HVAC, plumbing, and electrical installations where a partially threaded fastener is preferred for clamping force. The 50-count package quantity suits service vehicles and job-site fastener stock.

Key Features

• 7/16-14 UNC thread for broad tool and hardware compatibility
• 1-3/4 inch length under head suits medium-depth fastening applications
• Grade 5 steel provides higher tensile strength than Grade 2 for structural and equipment work
• Zinc-plated finish offers corrosion resistance in dry to mildly humid environments
• Partial threading delivers improved clamping force between joined surfaces
• 50-piece package supports bulk stocking for service and installation crews

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose UNC hex head cap screw for mechanical assembly and equipment installation across HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general construction trades.

Installation Notes

Install using a standard hex wrench or socket drive sized for a 7/16-14 fastener. Power down or de-energize any equipment before fastening near electrical or mechanical components. Follow applicable torque guidelines from the equipment manufacturer or relevant trade codes; do not rely on feel alone for structural connections. Inspect zinc plating for damage before use in environments where corrosion resistance is critical.
