Value Collection 92333 Hex Head Cap Screw 5/16-18 X 6 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 92333 is a hex head cap screw designed for general fastening applications where corrosion resistance and mechanical strength are required. Manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel and threaded to a 5/16-18 UNC specification, this fastener measures 6 inches in length under the head. The 1/2-inch hex drive accommodates standard hex sockets and wrenches. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, electricians, and general contractors reach for 18-8 stainless hardware when installations involve moisture exposure, outdoor environments, or dissimilar metals where galvanic compatibility matters.

This screw is suited for residential and light commercial trade applications including equipment mounting, bracket installation, conduit support, pipe hanger assemblies, and general structural fastening. The 6-inch length under head makes it appropriate for through-bolt configurations or applications requiring additional thread engagement in thicker materials. The UNC thread form is the standard inch-series coarse thread, widely compatible with most tapped holes and hex nuts found in trade equipment and structural components.

Key Features

• 18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet and outdoor environments
• 5/16-18 UNC coarse thread for broad compatibility with standard inch-series tapped holes and nuts
• 6-inch length under head suits through-bolt and deep-reach fastening applications
• 1/2-inch hex head drives with standard sockets or wrenches — no specialty tooling required
• Inch measurement system for direct compatibility with standard trade hardware

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series hex head cap screw for use with 5/16-18 UNC tapped holes, nuts, and threaded inserts in trade and industrial fastening applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hand-threading the fastener into the mating tapped hole or through a clearance hole with a matching hex nut, then driving to snug with a socket wrench or hex driver. Power down or de-energize any equipment before fastening hardware to electrical enclosures or mechanical assemblies. Do not over-torque stainless steel fasteners, as galling can seize the threads — applying anti-seize compound is common practice in the trade when using stainless-to-stainless connections.
