Value Collection HCI20370600-025BX Hex Head Bolt 3/8-16 6in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION HCI20370600-025BX is a 3/8-16 hex head bolt designed for general-purpose fastening in structural and mechanical applications. This bolt features a 6-inch length under head with partial threading, meaning the shank near the head remains unthreaded for a bearing surface fit in clearance holes. Manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a bright, uncoated finish, it conforms to ASTM A307 specifications. Licensed tradespeople and maintenance technicians working on equipment mounting, utility framing, and mechanical assemblies will find this a standard, widely applicable fastener.

This bolt is suited for light-duty structural connections, equipment mounting, and general mechanical assemblies in residential and commercial settings. The 3/8-16 UNC thread form is compatible with standard hex nuts and threaded inserts of the same thread designation. The partially threaded shank makes it appropriate for applications requiring a grip length without thread engagement along the full shaft, such as bolted joints with stacked materials or where shear load distribution matters.

Key Features

• 3/8-16 UNC thread form for compatibility with standard hardware
• 6-inch length under head provides generous grip length for stacked or thick material joints
• Partially threaded shank maintains a smooth bearing surface along the bolt body
• Grade 2 steel construction meets ASTM A307 standard for general-purpose bolting
• Bright, uncoated finish — suitable for dry or protected interior environments
• Sold in a minimum order quantity of 25 pieces per order

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose replacement or stock fastener for use with standard 3/8-16 UNC hex nuts, flat washers, and lock washers in any application requiring an ASTM A307 Grade 2 partially threaded hex bolt with a 6-inch grip length.

Installation Notes

Install using a standard hex wrench or socket set sized for a 3/8-inch hex head bolt. De-energize and lock out any equipment before fastening hardware to live mechanical assemblies. Do not use uncoated fasteners in exterior or high-humidity environments without additional corrosion protection. Torque to the joint requirement specified by the assembly designer or applicable code, as no torque value is defined by the ASTM A307 standard alone.
