Value Collection 92041 Hex Socket Cap Screw 5/16-18 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 92041 is a hex socket cap screw designed for secure, high-torque fastening in a wide range of mechanical and structural assemblies. Threaded to the 5/16-18 UNC standard, it features a 1/4-inch internal hex drive and a 1-inch length under head. The fastener is manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel, which provides solid corrosion resistance in environments where moisture, chemicals, or outdoor exposure is a concern. Electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general maintenance trades commonly use socket cap screws when a low-profile, high-strength fastening point is required and wrench clearance is limited.

This screw suits residential and light commercial applications including equipment panel assembly, bracket mounting, pump and motor housing fastening, and general mechanical repairs. The UNC thread form is compatible with standard tapped holes and nuts of the 5/16-18 specification. The 1/4-inch hex drive is engaged with a standard hex key or Allen driver, making it practical in confined spaces where a conventional bolt head would not fit.

Key Features

• 5/16-18 UNC thread for compatibility with standard tapped holes and hardware
• 1-inch length under head provides positive engagement in typical bracket and housing thicknesses
• 1/4-inch internal hex drive accepts standard hex keys and Allen drivers
• 18-8 stainless steel construction offers corrosion resistance in wet or outdoor service
• Low-profile socket cap head allows installation in space-constrained fastening locations

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 5/16-18 UNC hex socket cap screw suitable for use wherever that thread size and a 1-inch under-head length meet application requirements.

Installation Notes

Install using a 1/4-inch hex key or Allen driver of appropriate length; do not use an oversized or worn key, as this risks rounding the drive socket. Ensure the mating tapped hole or nut is clean and free of debris before threading. Apply appropriate thread engagement depth per standard fastening practice for the base material. Torque to values appropriate for 5/16-18 stainless steel fasteners per applicable project specifications or engineering guidelines.
