Value Collection 88549076 5/8-11 X 2 in Hex Cap Screw Gr5

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 88549076 is a fully threaded hex head cap screw intended for general-purpose mechanical assembly and structural fastening applications. It is manufactured from Grade 5 steel with a zinc-plated finish that provides a baseline level of corrosion resistance. The screw measures 5/8-11 thread size with a 2-inch length under head, conforming to Unified National Coarse (UNC) thread standards. This package contains 3 pieces. Electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general contractors reach for Grade 5 zinc-plated hardware when assembling equipment supports, strut systems, brackets, and mechanical connections that require reliable clamping force without exotic material requirements.

This fastener is suited for light to medium-duty structural and mechanical assemblies in residential and commercial trade work. Common applications include equipment mounting, metal-to-metal connections, unistrut and channel framing systems, and machinery brackets. The UNC thread form is the standard for inch-series fasteners in North American trade work, making this screw widely compatible with nuts, threaded inserts, and tapped holes spec'd to 5/8-11 UNC. Full threading along the shank length allows engagement across the full grip range.

Key Features

• Grade 5 steel construction provides tensile strength suitable for medium-duty mechanical assemblies
• Zinc-plated finish offers baseline corrosion resistance for indoor and sheltered applications
• Fully threaded shank allows maximum thread engagement across the full grip length
• 5/8-11 UNC thread form is the North American standard for this diameter class
• Hex head drive accepts standard 15/16-inch wrench or socket tooling
• Sold as a pack of 3 pieces to support small-quantity needs

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 5/8-11 UNC hex nuts, flat washers, lock washers, and tapped holes conforming to Unified National Coarse thread specifications in inch-series fastener systems.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 15/16-inch open-end, box, or socket wrench. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before assembly. Apply thread lubricant or anti-seize as required by the application to achieve accurate clamp load. Do not exceed the rated proof load for Grade 5 hardware; consult applicable mechanical or structural codes for torque requirements specific to your assembly.
