Value Collection HCI21001600G6-001BX Hex Head Bolt Grade 2

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION HCI21001600G6-001BX is a heavy hex head bolt designed for structural and general fastening applications in construction, mechanical, and industrial settings. This bolt features a 1-8 UNC thread size and measures 16 inches in length under the head, making it suited for through-bolt connections in thick assemblies. It is manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a hot-dipped galvanized finish for corrosion resistance. The bolt is partially threaded per ASTM A307 standards and is installed by tradespeople including ironworkers, millwrights, plumbers, and general contractors working on structural assemblies.

This bolt is used in residential and commercial construction, equipment mounting, structural steel connections, and utility installations where a large-diameter, long-reach fastener is required. The hot-dipped galvanized finish makes it appropriate for outdoor, exposed, or high-moisture environments where bare steel fasteners would corrode prematurely. ASTM A307 compliance ensures the bolt meets defined tensile and material requirements for use in general-purpose bolted connections. It is sold individually and is well suited for field replacement or low-quantity repair work.

Key Features

• 1-8 UNC thread size for standard inch-series hex head bolt applications
• 16-inch length under head accommodates deep through-bolt installations
• Hot-dipped galvanized finish provides enhanced corrosion resistance over electroplated alternatives
• Partially threaded shank maintains shear strength across unthreaded bearing sections
• Meets ASTM A307 standards for general-purpose fastener tensile requirements
• Grade 2 steel offers adequate strength for standard structural and mechanical fastening

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or general-use fastener for structural and mechanical assemblies requiring a 1-8 UNC, 16-inch partially threaded hex head bolt with a hot-dipped galvanized finish.

Installation Notes

Installation of large structural bolts should be performed by qualified tradespeople following applicable codes, including AISC and local building standards. Use a properly rated socket and torque wrench or impact driver suited for 1-inch hex drive fasteners. Ensure mating holes are clear of debris and that the bolt passes freely before applying final torque. Do not re-use bolts that have been over-torqued, bent, or show thread damage.
