Value Collection C702700 Hex Head Cap Screw Grade 5

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION C702700 is a fully threaded hex head cap screw designed for general fastening applications in mechanical, structural, and equipment assembly work. Sized at 1-8 (1 inch diameter, 8 threads per inch) with a 1-1/2 inch length under head, this fastener is manufactured from Grade 5 steel with a zinc-plated finish for corrosion resistance. It meets ASME B18.2.1 and SAE J429 standards, confirming dimensional accuracy and material strength requirements. This package contains 10 screws. Plumbers, HVAC techs, electricians, and general contractors reach for Grade 5 zinc-plated fasteners when securing brackets, equipment pads, mounting flanges, and structural assemblies across a wide range of trade applications.

This screw is suited for residential and light commercial trade work where a strong, corrosion-resistant fastener is required. The UNC (Unified National Coarse) thread form is the most widely used standard in inch-system fastening, making these screws compatible with the vast majority of tapped holes, nuts, and threaded inserts found in HVAC equipment frames, electrical enclosures, plumbing supports, and general mechanical assemblies. Fully threaded construction allows fastening across the full grip range of the screw length.

Key Features

• 1-8 thread size (1 inch diameter, 8 TPI) with 1-1/2 inch length under head
• Grade 5 steel construction meets SAE J429 minimum tensile and proof load requirements
• Zinc-plated finish provides baseline corrosion and oxidation resistance
• Fully threaded shank for maximum thread engagement across the entire fastener length
• UNC thread standard for broad compatibility with standard nuts, inserts, and tapped holes
• Conforms to ASME B18.2.1 dimensional standards for hex head cap screws

Compatibility

Designed as a standard UNC inch-series hex head cap screw for use with any 1-8 threaded nut, coupling nut, or tapped hole meeting ASME or SAE inch-standard specifications.

Installation Notes

Install using a standard hex wrench, socket, or impact driver sized for the hex head. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before driving. Apply appropriate thread lubricant or thread-locking compound based on the service environment and vibration requirements of the assembly. Always torque fasteners to the specification called out in the equipment or structural documentation being serviced.
