Value Collection KP44080 Hex Cap Screw 1/2-13 X 2 in Grade 8

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION KP44080 is a Grade 8 hex head cap screw designed for high-strength fastening applications across industrial, mechanical, and construction assemblies. Measuring 1/2-13 thread size at 2 inches length under head, this partially threaded fastener meets ASTM A354 BD specifications, confirming its suitability for structural and load-bearing connections. The zinc-plated finish provides a basic level of corrosion resistance for general service environments. This screw uses the Unified National Coarse (UNC) thread standard and is sold in a pack of 25 units, making it a practical stocking quantity for shop use or field kits.

This fastener is suited for heavy mechanical assemblies, equipment mounting, structural steel connections, and general maintenance where high-tensile fasteners are required. Grade 8 hardware is commonly specified in automotive, agricultural, and industrial fabrication contexts. The 1/2-13 UNC thread pattern is one of the most widely used sizes in inch-system mechanical work, and the partially threaded shank provides stronger grip in through-bolted joints where the unthreaded portion bears against the connected material.

Key Features

• Grade 8 steel construction meets ASTM A354 BD for high-strength fastening
• 1/2-13 UNC thread standard — one of the most common inch-system thread sizes
• 2-inch length under head with partial threading for optimized shear and clamping performance
• Zinc-plated finish for basic corrosion resistance in general service conditions
• Pack of 25 units for efficient stocking and multi-fastener jobs

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/2-13 UNC hex head cap screw for use in any inch-system application requiring Grade 8 tensile strength and ASTM A354 BD compliance.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by mechanics, millwrights, or maintenance technicians using a standard 3/4-inch hex wrench or socket. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before installation. Do not exceed the rated tensile load for Grade 8 hardware and follow applicable torque specifications from the equipment manufacturer or relevant industry standards. Zinc-plated fasteners are intended for dry or mildly corrosive environments — evaluate coating suitability before use in high-moisture or chemically aggressive conditions.
