Value Collection HCI203702000FT-100BX Hex Cap Screw 3/8-16

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION HCI203702000FT-100BX is a fully threaded hex head cap screw designed for general-purpose fastening in structural and mechanical assemblies. It features a 3/8-16 UNC thread with a 2-inch length under the head, manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish for basic corrosion resistance. The hex drive head accepts standard wrenches and sockets. This fastener is suited for light-to-medium duty clamping and assembly applications across HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general trade work. Sold in a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per box.

This cap screw is appropriate for residential and commercial installations where a standard UNC inch-series fastener is required. Common applications include mounting brackets, equipment frames, junction box assemblies, pipe support hardware, and panel attachments. The zinc plating provides a serviceable finish in dry or mildly humid indoor environments. This fastener is not rated for high-stress structural connections requiring Grade 5 or Grade 8 specifications. Installers working in outdoor or corrosive environments should evaluate whether a higher-grade or stainless fastener is more appropriate for the application.

Installation Notes

Install using a standard hex wrench, box-end wrench, or socket driver sized for a 3/8-inch hex head cap screw. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before installation. Do not use zinc-plated Grade 2 fasteners in applications requiring elevated tensile strength, outdoor exposure, or chemical environments without verifying suitability for the service conditions. Follow applicable mechanical and structural codes for the trade and jurisdiction where the fastener is being installed.
