Value Collection 92738 Hex Head Cap Screw 3/8-24 Unf

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 92738 is a 3/8-24 UNF hex head cap screw manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel. It measures 1-1/2 inches under the head with a 9/16-inch hex drive. The 18-8 grade stainless construction provides solid corrosion resistance in a wide range of service environments, making this fastener suitable for mechanical assemblies, equipment mounting, and structural connections where moisture or chemical exposure is a concern. It is driven with a standard hex wrench or socket and is appropriate for use by maintenance technicians, pipefitters, electricians, and other tradespeople working on equipment installation or repair.

This fastener is suited for both light industrial and trade applications where a fine-thread inch-series cap screw is required. The UNF thread form offers higher thread engagement per unit length compared to coarse-thread equivalents, which benefits clamping force in thinner materials and vibration-prone assemblies. Typical applications include equipment panel fastening, bracket mounting, and field repair work across HVAC, plumbing, and electrical trade installations.

Key Features

• 3/8-24 UNF fine thread for increased clamping force and vibration resistance
• 1-1/2 inches length under head for standard medium-depth fastening applications
• 18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet or chemical environments
• 9/16-inch hex drive compatible with standard sockets and wrenches
• Inch measurement system for direct compatibility with standard SAE hardware

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series UNF hex head cap screw for use in any application requiring a 3/8-24 thread pattern in stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 9/16-inch hex socket or open-end wrench. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before fastening. When installing stainless fasteners, apply an anti-seize compound to reduce the risk of galling under torque. Follow applicable equipment manufacturer specifications and applicable codes for fastener torque requirements.
