Value Collection HCI20500500-025BX Hex Head Bolt 1/2-13 5in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION HCI20500500-025BX is a 1/2-13 UNC hex head bolt with a 5-inch length under head, manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a bright uncoated finish. Partially threaded along the shank, this fastener meets ASTM A307 standards, making it suitable for general-purpose structural and mechanical assembly applications. The 1/2-13 thread designation indicates a half-inch nominal diameter with 13 threads per inch in Unified National Coarse (UNC) form. Plumbers, pipefitters, HVAC technicians, electricians, and general tradespeople use bolts of this specification when assembling equipment frames, flanges, pipe supports, and electrical enclosures where standard-duty carbon steel fasteners are appropriate.

This bolt is well-suited for light to moderate structural connections in residential and commercial construction and trade installations. Typical applications include equipment mounting, pipe hanger assemblies, structural framing connections, and general mechanical assembly where an uncoated steel fastener with partial thread engagement is required. Sold in a minimum order quantity of 25 units per box, this product is packaged for jobsite or shop use by trade professionals who need reliable, specification-grade fasteners on hand in quantity.

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 1/2-13 UNC hex nuts and threaded inserts in general mechanical and structural assembly applications where ASTM A307 Grade 2 steel fasteners are specified.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified tradesperson familiar with fastener specifications and applicable building or mechanical codes. Always confirm that the mating nut, washer, and base material are rated for the load conditions of the application before fastening. Follow applicable code requirements such as the IBC or AISC specifications for structural connections. Do not use uncoated fasteners in corrosive or wet environments without appropriate protective measures.
