Value Collection HCI50500150G-050BX Hex Cap Screw 1/2-13

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION HCI50500150G-050BX is a fully threaded hex head cap screw designed for general structural and mechanical fastening applications. It features a 1/2-13 UNC thread size with a 1-1/2 inch length under head, manufactured from Grade 5 steel and finished with a hot-dipped galvanized coating for corrosion resistance. This fastener is suited for tradespeople working in HVAC equipment mounting, plumbing fixture support, electrical panel framing, pool equipment installation, and similar mechanical assemblies where a mid-strength, corrosion-resistant fastener is required. The fully threaded body allows for maximum thread engagement across the full grip length.

This hex cap screw is appropriate for both residential and light commercial applications. It fits standard 1/2-13 UNC nuts and tapped holes and is well suited for outdoor and exposed environments where moisture resistance is a priority. The hot-dipped galvanized finish provides a thicker zinc coating than electroplated alternatives, making it preferable for exterior installations, equipment pads, and structural bracketing where longevity matters.

Key Features

• 1/2-13 UNC thread for compatibility with standard inch-system hardware
• 1-1/2 inch length under head, fully threaded for maximum thread engagement
• Grade 5 steel construction for mid-range tensile strength requirements
• Hot-dipped galvanized finish for enhanced corrosion resistance in exposed environments
• Inch measurement system for use with standard SAE tooling

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/2-13 UNC fully threaded hex head cap screw compatible with any application calling for Grade 5 steel fasteners in an inch-measurement system with a hot-dipped galvanized finish.

Installation Notes

Install using a standard 3/4 inch hex wrench or socket driver. Follow applicable structural or mechanical codes for fastener torque requirements based on joint type and load. Ensure mating nuts and tapped holes conform to UNC 1/2-13 thread standards before installation. Avoid mixing galvanized fasteners with incompatible metals in wet environments to prevent accelerated galvanic corrosion.
