Value Collection MP30602 Hex Head Cap Screw 1/2-13

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MP30602 is a 1/2-13 UNC hex head cap screw manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel. Sized at 1/2 inch in diameter with 13 threads per inch and a 1-1/2 inch length under head, this fastener provides strong, corrosion-resistant clamping in demanding environments. The 3/4 inch hex drive allows installation with standard hex wrenches or sockets. Grade 316 stainless steel offers superior resistance to chlorides and chemical exposure compared to standard 304-grade fasteners, making it a reliable choice for corrosive or wet service conditions. Machinists, millwrights, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians commonly specify this grade for marine, chemical, and food-processing applications.

This cap screw is suited for use in residential and commercial applications where corrosion resistance is a primary concern. Typical install scenarios include pipe flange connections, pump housings, equipment enclosures, and structural assemblies exposed to moisture, salt air, or chemical wash-down environments. The UNC thread form is the standard for inch-series fastener applications across mechanical and process industries.

Key Features

• Grade 316 stainless steel construction for enhanced chloride and corrosion resistance
• 1/2-13 UNC thread form for broad compatibility with standard inch-series hardware
• 1-1/2 inch length under head suits medium-depth clamping applications
• 3/4 inch hex drive fits standard open-end, box, and socket wrenches
• Inch measurement system for direct fit with standard UNC tapped holes and nuts

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/2-13 UNC hex head cap screw for use with any 1/2-13 tapped hole or nut conforming to inch-series UNC thread standards.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified maintenance technicians, millwrights, or pipefitters using standard hand or power tools. De-energize, depressurize, or drain any system before fastener replacement to ensure safe working conditions. Apply an appropriate anti-seize compound when installing stainless fasteners into stainless tapped holes to prevent galling. Follow applicable mechanical or process industry codes for torque and fastener specifications relevant to the specific assembly.
