Value Collection 92063 Hex Socket Cap Screw 3/8-16 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 92063 is a hex socket cap screw designed for secure, high-torque fastening in applications where a flush or recessed head profile is required. Threaded at 3/8-16 UNC, the screw measures 3 inches under the head and accepts a 5/16-inch hex drive. Constructed from 18-8 stainless steel, it offers reliable corrosion resistance in both indoor and outdoor environments. This fastener is suitable for mechanical assemblies, equipment mounting, and structural connections where vibration resistance and material compatibility are priorities for the installing technician or tradesperson.

This screw is commonly used in HVAC equipment assemblies, plumbing fixtures, electrical enclosures, and general industrial or commercial installations requiring a corrosion-resistant threaded fastener. The 3/8-16 UNC coarse thread pattern provides strong thread engagement in standard tapped holes and is compatible with matching hex nuts and threaded inserts of the same thread specification. It is appropriate for both new construction and maintenance or repair service work across multiple trades.

Key Features

• 3/8-16 UNC coarse thread for strong engagement in standard tapped holes
• 3-inch length under head provides deep thread reach for thicker material stacks
• 5/16-inch hex socket drive for use with standard hex keys or Allen-style drivers
• 18-8 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet and outdoor environments
• Socket cap head style allows installation in tight or recessed spaces where a wrench cannot reach

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 3/8-16 UNC hex socket cap screw suitable for use in any application requiring an 18-8 stainless steel fastener of this thread size and length.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a 5/16-inch hex key or Allen driver; use of a torque wrench is recommended for critical structural connections per applicable mechanical codes. Ensure the mating tapped hole or nut matches the 3/8-16 UNC thread specification before installation. De-energize, depressurize, or shut off the relevant system before accessing fastener points during service work. Avoid cross-threading by starting the screw by hand before applying drive torque.
