Value Collection 90464 Hex Head Cap Screw 1/2-13 Brass

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 90464 is a brass hex head cap screw sized 1/2-13 x 1-1/2 inches, designed for use in mechanical, plumbing, and light structural fastening applications. The 1/2-13 designation indicates a 1/2-inch nominal diameter with 13 threads per inch, conforming to the Unified National Coarse (UNC) thread standard. The 3/4-inch hex drive accepts a standard wrench or socket. Brass construction provides corrosion resistance in wet or chemically active environments, making this fastener a common choice for plumbing fixtures, pool equipment, and marine-adjacent assemblies. This screw is installed by plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general tradespeople wherever a non-ferrous fastener is required.

This hex head cap screw is suited for residential and light commercial applications where brass fasteners are specified to prevent galvanic corrosion or to comply with code requirements for certain plumbing and fluid-handling systems. Typical installations include pump housings, valve bodies, fixture mounting, and equipment panels where steel fasteners would cause corrosion issues. Sold in a package quantity of 25 units, making this item practical for service truck stocking or job-lot use.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard UNC 1/2-13 brass hex head cap screw compatible with any application requiring a 1/2-13 threaded fastener in brass, including pump assemblies, plumbing fixtures, and valve bodies.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hand-threading into a pre-tapped or nut-fitted hole before driving with a 3/4-inch wrench or socket. Shut off and depressurize any fluid system before replacing or tightening fasteners on pressurized components. Brass is a softer material than steel — avoid overtightening, which can strip threads or crack the fastener head. Follow applicable IPC or IFGC guidelines when using fasteners in code-regulated assemblies.
