Value Collection MP30204 Hex Head Cap Screw 5/16-24 X 1 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MP30204 is a fully threaded hex head cap screw designed for general mechanical fastening in trade and industrial applications. Sized at 5/16-24 UNF by 1 inch under the head, it is manufactured from Grade 5 steel with a zinc-plated finish that provides basic corrosion resistance. The fine-thread UNF pattern delivers strong clamping force in metal-to-metal joints. Conforming to ASME B18.2.1, this fastener meets recognized dimensional and mechanical standards. It ships in a pack of 50 units, making it practical for service vans, maintenance shops, and job-site replenishment where consistent fastener stock is required.

This screw is suited for light to medium-duty fastening tasks across HVAC equipment assembly, electrical enclosure mounting, plumbing fixture brackets, and general mechanical maintenance. The 5/16-24 fine-thread profile is commonly found in precision metal assemblies where vibration resistance and tight tolerances matter. Zinc plating makes it acceptable for indoor and mildly corrosive environments. Installers working on residential and light commercial equipment will find this size a standard fit for many OEM hardware applications.

Key Features

• 5/16-24 UNF fine-thread pattern for strong clamping in metal assemblies
• 1 inch length measured under the head per ASME B18.2.1
• Grade 5 steel construction for reliable tensile strength in mechanical fastening
• Zinc-plated finish provides corrosion resistance for indoor and mildly corrosive environments
• Fully threaded shank for maximum thread engagement in shallow or thin-material applications
• Pack of 50 units supports stocking for service and maintenance operations

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 5/16-24 UNF hex head cap screw for use in any application requiring an ASME B18.2.1-compliant Grade 5 fastener of this thread and length.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a standard hex wrench or socket driver sized for a 5/16-inch hex head cap screw. Power down or de-energize any equipment before replacing or installing fasteners on electrical or mechanical assemblies. Verify thread engagement and do not cross-thread when starting the fastener by hand. Follow equipment manufacturer torque guidance and applicable codes for the assembly being serviced.
