Value Collection HCI50430175G-050BX Hex Head Cap Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION HCI50430175G-050BX is a partially threaded hex head cap screw designed for general mechanical and structural fastening applications. It features a 7/16-14 UNC thread size with a 1-3/4 inch length under head, manufactured from Grade 5 steel with a hot-dipped galvanized finish for corrosion resistance. The partial threading provides a smooth shank section that helps align clamped components and improves shear load handling. This fastener is appropriate for use by trades professionals including HVAC installers, electricians, plumbers, and general contractors requiring a reliable, corrosion-resistant hex bolt in inch-standard sizing.

This cap screw is suited for both indoor and outdoor applications where moisture or environmental exposure demands a galvanized coating. The hot-dipped galvanized finish provides a thicker, more durable zinc layer compared to electroplated alternatives, making it a practical choice for rooftop equipment mounting, equipment pads, utility supports, and structural framing assemblies. It is packaged individually and sold with a minimum order quantity of 50 pieces, making it well suited for job-lot procurement and contractor supply replenishment.

Key Features

• 7/16-14 UNC thread ensures compatibility with standard inch-series nuts and tapped holes
• Grade 5 steel construction provides medium-strength fastening performance
• Hot-dipped galvanized finish delivers corrosion resistance for outdoor and wet environments
• Partially threaded shank improves shear resistance and component alignment
• 1-3/4 inch length under head suits moderate clamping thickness requirements
• Minimum order quantity of 50 pieces supports bulk job-site procurement

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series hex head cap screw compatible with 7/16-14 UNC threaded nuts, inserts, and tapped components per ASME B18.2.1 dimensional standards.

Installation Notes

Install using an appropriately sized wrench or socket driver; a 5/8 inch hex drive is standard for 7/16-14 fasteners. Apply consistent torque per the relevant structural or equipment specification for Grade 5 hardware. When used in outdoor or wet environments, avoid mixing with non-galvanized hardware to prevent galvanic incompatibility. Always confirm thread engagement depth meets design requirements before final torque.
