Value Collection 92089 Hex Socket Cap Screw 1/2-13 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 92089 is a hex socket cap screw designed for secure fastening in mechanical assemblies, structural connections, and general industrial applications. The 1/2-13 UNC thread provides a coarse-thread profile suited for steel, aluminum, and similar base materials where vibration resistance and ease of engagement are priorities. Driven by a 3/8-inch hex (Allen) key, the recessed drive allows flush or countersunk installation in tight clearance areas. Constructed from 18-8 stainless steel, this fastener offers corrosion resistance appropriate for wet, outdoor, or chemically exposed environments. The length under head measures 2 inches, accommodating standard joint stack-ups in that size range.

This cap screw is commonly used in HVAC equipment frames, pump housings, pipe supports, panel enclosures, and general mechanical fabrication. The 1/2-13 UNC thread size is one of the most widely specified coarse-thread fasteners in North American trade work, making this screw a practical stock item for maintenance technicians, pipefitters, millwrights, and mechanical contractors. The 18-8 stainless steel grade is appropriate for mildly corrosive service conditions including outdoor installations and wet mechanical rooms.

Key Features

• 1/2-13 UNC coarse thread for broad material compatibility and reliable engagement
• 2-inch length under head suits standard joint stack-ups in that range
• 3/8-inch hex socket drive allows use in confined or flush-mount applications
• 18-8 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet and outdoor environments
• Stainless steel grade suitable for mildly corrosive chemical exposure

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/2-13 UNC hex socket cap screw suitable for use wherever that thread size and 2-inch under-head length are specified in mechanical, structural, or HVAC-related assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 3/8-inch hex key or Allen driver; use of a calibrated torque wrench is recommended to achieve proper clamp load without galling the stainless steel threads. Apply an anti-seize compound to the threads before installation to reduce the risk of thread galling, which is common with stainless fasteners under high torque. Power down and de-energize any associated equipment before performing fastener work on live mechanical or electrical assemblies. Follow applicable mechanical codes and equipment manufacturer torque specifications for the joint being assembled.
