Value Collection 92043 Hex Socket Cap Screw 5/16-18 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 92043 is a hex socket cap screw designed for secure fastening in applications where a flush or recessed head profile is required. Threaded at 5/16-18 UNC, it measures 1.5 inches in length under the head and accepts a 1/4-inch hex (Allen) drive. The fastener is manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel, providing corrosion resistance suitable for indoor and outdoor environments. It is a standard industrial fastener installed by machinists, millwrights, maintenance technicians, and mechanical contractors across a wide range of assemblies and equipment.

This screw is suited for light to medium-duty mechanical assemblies in both residential and commercial settings. Typical applications include equipment panels, brackets, fixtures, and machine components where a clean socket-drive installation is preferred. The 5/16-18 UNC thread is a coarse, unified national thread standard, widely used across general manufacturing and trade work. Sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 25 pieces.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 5/16-18 UNC hex socket cap screw for use in any application requiring this thread size and coarse pitch, compatible with standard 5/16-18 tapped holes and threaded inserts across general mechanical and trade assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 1/4-inch hex key or Allen-drive bit. De-energize and lock out any equipment before replacing fasteners in electrical or mechanical assemblies, per applicable OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Do not overtighten stainless steel fasteners, as galling can occur; apply an anti-seize compound when torque specifications require it. Follow applicable mechanical and equipment codes for fastener replacement in structural or load-bearing assemblies.
