Value Collection C703186 Hex Head Cap Screw 7/16-14x6

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION C703186 is a partially threaded hex head cap screw designed for heavy-duty fastening applications where high tensile strength is required. Manufactured from Grade 8 steel with an uncoated finish, this fastener measures 7/16-14 thread size with a 6-inch length under the head. It conforms to ASME B18.2.1 and SAE J429 standards, making it a reliable choice for structural and mechanical assemblies that demand consistent clamping force and dimensional precision. The Unified National Coarse thread form ensures broad compatibility with standard UNC threaded hardware across industrial and trade applications.

This cap screw is suited for use in mechanical assemblies, structural connections, and equipment installations where Grade 8 strength is specified. Typical applications include heavy machinery, automotive components, agricultural equipment, and structural steel connections. The partially threaded shank provides a smooth bearing surface against mating materials in grip-zone applications, which is useful when load transfer across the shank is required rather than threads extending the full fastener length. Sold in packages of 25, this item supports professional trade use and shop stocking.

• 7/16-14 UNC thread form ensures compatibility with standard coarse-thread nuts and tapped holes
• Partially threaded shank maintains a smooth grip zone for precise load transfer
• Uncoated finish suitable for use as-is or for applications where a secondary coating will be applied
• Meets ASME B18.2.1 and SAE J429 dimensional and mechanical standards
• Sold in a package quantity of 25 to support shop inventory and field use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard UNC hex head cap screw compatible with 7/16-14 threaded nuts, inserts, and tapped holes conforming to ASME B18.2.1 dimensional standards.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by mechanics, millwrights, or maintenance tradespeople using standard hex wrenches or socket drives. Always match the nut or tapped hole grade to Grade 8 fastener requirements to maintain joint integrity. Follow applicable torque specifications from engineering drawings or industry fastener tables for 7/16-14 Grade 8 hardware. Inspect threads for contamination or damage before installation to avoid galling or improper seating.
