Value Collection IEH5235 Binding Post 3/8-16 Stainless Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION IEH5235 is a stainless steel tamper-resistant sex bolt binding post designed for secure fastening applications where disassembly resistance is required. This flat-head, Phillips-drive screw barrel features a 3/8-16 UNC thread and is manufactured from Grade 18-8 stainless steel with an uncoated finish. The overall length is 1 inch, with a barrel length of 1.75 inches. Binding posts of this type are installed by machinists, maintenance technicians, and fabricators working with panel assemblies, book binding hardware, leather goods, or custom fixtures that require a through-bolt fastening solution.

This binding post is suited for light industrial, commercial, and specialty fabrication environments. It functions as a two-piece fastener: the barrel passes through a panel or material stack while a mating screw threads into it from the opposite side, clamping the assembly together. The tamper-resistant design makes it appropriate for public-access enclosures, signage, and security-sensitive panel installations where standard fasteners are not acceptable.

Key Features

• Grade 18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance for indoor and moderate outdoor use
• 3/8-16 UNC thread standard ensures broad compatibility with standard mating screws
• Flat head profile sits flush with the surface for clean panel installations
• Phillips drive allows installation with standard Phillips screwdrivers
• Tamper-resistant design discourages unauthorized disassembly
• Uncoated finish maintains dimensional accuracy and is suitable for post-installation finishing if required

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install binding post for assemblies requiring a 3/8-16 UNC thread sex bolt with a flat head Phillips drive profile.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by inserting the barrel through the material stack and threading the mating screw from the opposite face. Ensure material thickness falls within the usable barrel length to achieve full thread engagement. Use a properly sized Phillips screwdriver to avoid cam-out damage to the drive recess. No power tools or specialized trade licensing are required for standard installation of this fastener type.
