Value Collection 97093 Hex Head Cap Screw 7/16-14 X 5 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 97093 is a partially threaded hex head cap screw designed for general fastening applications in mechanical, structural, and industrial assemblies. Manufactured from Grade 5 steel with no surface coating, this fastener measures 7/16-14 thread size with a 5-inch length under the head. It conforms to ASME B18.2.1 standards for inch-series hex cap screws. The UNC (Unified National Coarse) thread form makes it compatible with standard tapped holes and hex nuts. Trade professionals and maintenance technicians rely on Grade 5 fasteners where moderate strength and reliable clamping are required without the overhead of higher-alloy hardware.

This cap screw is suited for a wide range of light industrial, mechanical, and equipment assembly applications. Partial threading leaves a smooth shank section under the head, which helps maintain shear strength and alignment in bolted connections. It is commonly used in HVAC equipment frames, electrical panel mounting, mechanical support structures, pump assemblies, and general trade service work. Sold in packages of 25, it is practical for both single-use repairs and small-volume stocking by service technicians or shop mechanics.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series hex head cap screw for use in any application requiring a 7/16-14 UNC partially threaded fastener per ASME B18.2.1 specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a standard hex wrench or socket driver sized for the 7/16-14 fastener. Always confirm the mating thread is clean and free of damage before installation to avoid cross-threading. Torque to the value specified by the equipment manufacturer or applicable assembly drawing. Uncoated fasteners should not be used in wet or corrosive environments without additional protection measures.
