Value Collection HCI505006000FTUSA-050BX Hex Cap Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION HCI505006000FTUSA-050BX is a fully threaded hex head cap screw designed for general-purpose fastening in structural and mechanical assemblies. It carries a 1/2-13 UNC thread specification with a 6-inch length under head and is manufactured from Grade 5 steel with a zinc-plated finish for corrosion resistance. The hex drive head accepts standard hex wrenches and impact sockets, making installation straightforward in both shop and field environments. This fastener is sold individually per package and is appropriate for use by maintenance technicians, millwrights, plumbers, and general contractors who need a reliable inch-series cap screw for medium-strength applications.

This cap screw suits a wide range of industrial and commercial applications including equipment mounting, structural steel connections, flanged joint assembly, and mechanical frame fabrication. The fully threaded shank provides maximum thread engagement along the entire fastener length, which is advantageous when threading into deep tapped holes or using full-length nut engagement. The zinc coating offers baseline protection against oxidation in dry to mildly humid indoor environments.

Key Features

• 1/2-13 UNC thread — standard inch-series coarse thread for broad compatibility with nuts and tapped holes
• 6-inch length under head — fully threaded for maximum engagement in deep tapped applications
• Grade 5 steel construction — medium-strength fastener suitable for general structural and mechanical use
• Zinc-plated finish — provides corrosion resistance in dry and mildly humid conditions
• Hex head drive — compatible with standard hex wrenches, combination wrenches, and impact sockets

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series UNC hex head cap screw suitable for use with 1/2-13 nuts, threaded inserts, and tapped holes conforming to ASME B18.2.1 and ASME B1.1 UNC thread standards.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed using a standard hex wrench, combination wrench, or impact driver with the appropriate socket. Verify that the mating nut or tapped hole matches the 1/2-13 UNC thread specification before fastening. Follow applicable industry torque guidelines for Grade 5 fasteners at this diameter when specified by the equipment manufacturer or engineering drawings. Inspect threads for damage or contamination prior to installation to ensure proper thread engagement and clamp load.
