Manufactured from Grade 5 steel with a zinc-plated finish, this screw delivers corrosion resistance suitable for general industrial and mechanical assembly environments. The partially threaded shank conforms to ASME B18.2.1 dimensional standards, ensuring consistent fit across standard tooling and hardware. Sold in packages of 25, this fastener is a common stock item for maintenance, repair, and light fabrication work across multiple trades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fastener is appropriate for structural and mechanical assembly applications where an inch-series fine-thread hex cap screw is specified. The 3\/8-24 UNF thread pattern is commonly used in automotive, HVAC equipment frames, electrical enclosures, and general mechanical assemblies where fine-thread fasteners are preferred for vibration resistance or precise torque control. The 2.5-inch length under head accommodates thicker material stacks or applications requiring partial thread engagement with an unthreaded bearing shank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-24 UNF fine-thread specification for vibration-resistant fastening\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade 5 steel construction meets medium-strength fastener requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZinc-plated finish provides corrosion protection in general service environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePartially threaded shank per ASME B18.2.1 for accurate dimensional compliance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2.5-inch length under head suits thicker material stacks and structural assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePackage quantity of 25 supports maintenance stock and repeat-use applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard inch-series hex head cap screw for use in any application calling for a 3\/8-24 UNF partially threaded fastener conforming to ASME B18.2.1.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstall with a standard hex wrench or socket driver sized for a 3\/8-inch hex cap screw head.
