Value Collection HCI50370150G-100BX Hex Cap Screw 3/8-16

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION HCI50370150G-100BX is a Grade 5 steel hex head cap screw with a hot-dipped galvanized finish, sized at 3/8-16 UNC thread with a 1-1/2 inch length under head. The partial threading design provides a smooth shank near the head, which helps resist shear forces and maintain clamping strength in structural connections. The hot-dipped galvanized coating delivers corrosion resistance suited to outdoor, wet, or mildly corrosive environments. This fastener is a standard trade-supply item used across HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general mechanical installations wherever a zinc-coated, medium-strength hex cap screw is required.

This screw is appropriate for residential and commercial construction and mechanical applications. It is commonly used to fasten equipment mounting brackets, ductwork supports, electrical enclosure frames, pipe hangers, and structural steel connections. The 3/8-16 UNC thread is one of the most widely used coarse-thread sizes in North American trade work, and the Grade 5 rating makes it suitable for moderate-load fastening applications. This item is sold in a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per order.

Key Features

• Grade 5 steel construction provides medium-high tensile strength for structural and mechanical fastening
• Hot-dipped galvanized finish offers corrosion resistance for outdoor and wet-location installations
• 3/8-16 UNC coarse thread for broad compatibility with standard hex nuts and tapped holes
• Partial threading leaves a smooth shank for improved shear resistance and joint clamping
• 1-1/2 inch length under head suits medium-depth fastening applications
• Minimum order quantity of 100 pieces supports job-site and shop stocking needs

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 3/8-16 UNC hex head cap screw for use with any 3/8-16 threaded nut, insert, or tapped hole conforming to UNC thread standards.

Installation Notes

Install using a standard hex wrench, socket, or impact driver sized for a 3/8-inch hex head cap screw. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before installation. Follow applicable mechanical, structural, or trade codes for fastener torque and joint design requirements. Do not substitute this fastener in applications requiring higher-grade hardware without verifying load ratings against project specifications.
