Value Collection B8MSTFE0875C700 Threaded Stud 7/8-9

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION B8MSTFE0875C700 is a fully threaded stud designed for high-strength fastening applications where corrosion resistance is critical. Machined from 316 stainless steel and left uncoated, this stud carries a 7/8-9 UNC thread along its entire 7-inch length with a Class 2A thread fit, meeting ASTM B8M standards. The right-hand thread direction and standard tolerance class make it a straightforward drop-in for most structural and industrial assemblies. Weighing 1.03 pounds, it is suited for use in wet, chemical, or marine-adjacent environments where carbon steel fasteners would corrode prematurely. Maintenance technicians, pipefitters, and millwrights commonly specify this grade for process equipment and structural connections.

This fully threaded stud is used in industrial, commercial, and mechanical applications that require a full-length thread engagement on both ends without a plain shank. Typical installations include flanged pipe connections, structural steel assemblies, pump housings, heat exchanger tie-rods, and equipment mounting frames. The 316 stainless steel material grade is selected specifically for environments with exposure to chlorides, mild acids, or moisture. It is equally appropriate for indoor mechanical rooms and outdoor or coastal installations where long-term fastener integrity is required.

Key Features

• Full-length 7/8-9 UNC thread along entire 7-inch body — no plain shank
• 316 stainless steel construction for superior corrosion resistance in harsh or wet environments
• Uncoated plain finish maintains dimensional accuracy and allows use with standard hardware
• Class 2A thread fit for reliable engagement with standard hex nuts and coupling nuts
• Right-hand thread direction compatible with standard tooling and fastener hardware
• Meets ASTM B8M standard for stainless steel bolting materials

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 7/8-9 UNC fully threaded stud for use with compatible hex nuts, coupling nuts, and threaded inserts rated for 316 stainless steel Class 2A fasteners.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a pipefitter, millwright, or maintenance mechanic using standard open-end or socket wrenches rated for the fastener size. Always verify that mating nuts and threaded components are also rated for 316 stainless steel compatibility to avoid galvanic corrosion. Anti-seize compound is commonly applied to stainless steel threads before assembly to prevent galling during torque-up. Confirm applicable structural or piping codes such as ASME or ANSI standards govern the joint before installation.
