Value Collection 92370 Hex Head Cap Screw 9/16-12 X 2.5 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 92370 is a partially threaded hex head cap screw designed for general-purpose fastening in structural and mechanical assemblies. Manufactured in 18-8 stainless steel with an uncoated finish, this fastener offers reliable corrosion resistance in wet, chemical-exposed, or outdoor environments. The 9/16-12 UNC thread pattern mates with standard inch-series nuts and tapped holes. The 2.5-inch length under head suits medium-depth clamping applications where full threading is not required. Machinists, millwrights, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians routinely specify this grade for food-service, marine, and industrial installations where carbon steel fasteners are not appropriate.

This hex head cap screw is suited for residential and commercial maintenance applications, fabrication work, and industrial equipment assembly. The partially threaded shank provides a smooth bearing surface in the grip zone, which helps control clamp load and reduces the risk of thread galling in stainless-to-stainless assemblies. It is compatible with standard 9/16-inch hex drive sockets and open-end wrenches. The minimum order quantity for this SKU is 25 pieces, with individual unit packaging.

Key Features

• 18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance for wet and chemical environments
• Partially threaded shank creates a clean bearing surface in the grip zone
• 9/16-12 UNC thread standard ensures compatibility with standard inch-series hardware
• Uncoated finish — no zinc or plating to interfere with stainless material compatibility
• Hex head drive accepts standard 9/16-inch sockets and wrenches
• Minimum order quantity of 25 pieces suits maintenance stock and small-batch fabrication

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series UNC hex head cap screw compatible with 9/16-12 tapped holes, threaded inserts, and hex nuts conforming to ASME B18.2.1 and ASME B1.1 standards.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic, millwright, or maintenance technician using a properly sized socket or open-end wrench. When assembling stainless fasteners, apply an appropriate anti-seize compound to the threads to prevent galling during torque-up. Inspect mating threads for contamination or damage before assembly. Do not mix stainless and carbon steel hardware in the same joint without verifying galvanic compatibility.
