Value Collection HCIA0370150-100T Hex Head Cap Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION HCIA0370150-100T is a hex head cap screw sized 3/8-16 x 1-1/2 inches, manufactured from 2024T4 aluminum. The 3/8-16 thread designation follows the Unified National Coarse (UNC) standard, and the 1-1/2 inch measurement reflects length under head. With a 9/16 inch hex drive, this fastener is tightened using standard hex wrenches or sockets. The 2024T4 aluminum grade offers a useful strength-to-weight ratio for applications where steel weight is a concern. Licensed trades and industrial maintenance personnel typically install this fastener in assemblies where corrosion resistance and low weight are priorities.

This hex head cap screw is suited for mechanical assemblies, structural brackets, and equipment panels in light industrial, HVAC, and general maintenance contexts. The UNC thread form is widely compatible with standard tapped holes and hex nuts in inch-measurement applications. It is appropriate for use in environments where an aluminum fastener is specified to avoid galvanic corrosion concerns or to reduce overall assembly weight. Installation is performed using common hand or power tools accepting a 9/16 inch hex drive.

Key Features

• 3/8-16 UNC thread for compatibility with standard inch-system tapped holes and nuts
• 1-1/2 inch length under head for consistent grip length across assemblies
• 2024T4 aluminum grade provides higher strength than standard aluminum alloys
• 9/16 inch hex drive accommodates standard wrenches and sockets
• Lightweight aluminum construction reduces overall fastener assembly weight

Compatibility

Designed for use in inch-measurement mechanical assemblies requiring a 3/8-16 UNC hex head cap screw in 2024T4 aluminum, compatible with standard 3/8-16 tapped holes and hex nuts.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by maintenance technicians or tradespeople using a 9/16 inch open-end, box, or socket wrench. Ensure the mating tapped hole or nut is 3/8-16 UNC before installation. De-energize or shut down any equipment before fastener replacement on powered assemblies. Avoid overtightening aluminum fasteners, as the material is more susceptible to thread stripping than steel equivalents.
