Value Collection 97222 Hex Head Cap Screw Grade 5 Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 97222 is a partially threaded hex head cap screw designed for general mechanical fastening applications. It features a 1-8 thread size (1 inch diameter, 8 threads per inch, UNC) and a 4.5-inch length measured under the head. Manufactured from Grade 5 steel with an uncoated finish, this fastener meets ASME B18.2.1 dimensional standards. It is suited for structural and mechanical assemblies where a mid-strength carbon steel fastener is required. Installers drive it with a standard hex wrench or socket tool. The partial threading allows the unthreaded shank to pass cleanly through clearance holes before engaging the nut or tapped bore.

This hex head cap screw is used across a wide range of industrial, mechanical, and trade applications including HVAC equipment mounting, electrical panel and structural steel assembly, plumbing fixture support, and general equipment fabrication. The 1-inch diameter and 4.5-inch length make it appropriate for heavier structural connections where a coarse UNC thread profile provides reliable clamp load. It is sold in a package quantity of 15 pieces, with a minimum order quantity of 1 package.

Key Features

• Grade 5 steel construction provides medium-strength performance suitable for structural and mechanical fastening
• Partially threaded shank allows smooth passage through clearance holes and reduces thread galling risk
• UNC (Unified National Coarse) thread form for broad nut and tapped-hole compatibility
• Uncoated finish — compatible with field-applied coatings or galvanic protection where specified
• Meets ASME B18.2.1 dimensional standard for hex head cap screws
• Sold in 15-piece packages to support small-batch or single-repair procurement

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1-8 UNC hex head cap screw per ASME B18.2.1, compatible with any 1-8 UNC tapped hole or standard hex nut of the same thread designation.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a standard hex socket or open-end wrench sized for a 1-inch diameter hex head cap screw. Always ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before assembly. Apply thread lubricant or anti-seize compound if required by the assembly specification. Follow applicable torque specifications from the equipment manufacturer or relevant standards such as ASME or AISC for structural connections.
