Value Collection MP30054 Hex Cap Screw 3/8-16 X 1 in Grade 5

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MP30054 is a fully threaded hex head cap screw designed for general-purpose mechanical assembly and structural fastening. Built to Grade 5 steel standards, it delivers reliable tensile strength for demanding industrial, commercial, and trade applications. The 3/8-16 UNC thread pattern and 1-inch length under the head make it a common choice for bolted connections where a medium-strength fastener is required. The zinc-plated finish provides baseline corrosion resistance suitable for indoor and sheltered installations. This fastener conforms to ASME B18.2.1 dimensional standards, ensuring consistent fit across compatible tooling and hardware.

This cap screw is used across a wide range of mechanical and trade applications including HVAC equipment mounting, plumbing fixture brackets, electrical enclosure assembly, and general structural connections. Its fully threaded shank allows engagement along the full grip length, making it particularly useful in thin-material applications or where maximum thread engagement is needed. Sold in a package quantity of 25, it suits both single-use repair jobs and repetitive production assembly tasks.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic or tradesperson using appropriate hand or power tools sized for a 3/8-16 fastener. Always inspect mating threads for damage or contamination before assembly. Apply thread lubricant or threadlocker only where specified by the equipment manufacturer. Ensure proper torque is applied per the applicable equipment service manual or structural specification — do not rely on generic torque values not specific to the assembly.
