Value Collection MP39087 Hex Head Cap Screw 7/16-14x3 Gr8

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MP39087 is a Grade 8 steel hex head cap screw with a 7/16-14 UNC thread and a 3-inch length under head. It features a zinc yellow dichromate finish that provides corrosion resistance in demanding environments. The shank is partially threaded per ASME B18.2.1, the standard governing inch-series hex cap screws. This fastener is suited for high-strength bolted assemblies where Grade 8 tensile requirements are specified. It is commonly installed by millwrights, maintenance mechanics, equipment technicians, and field service professionals working across industrial, commercial, and mechanical trade applications.

This hex cap screw is used in structural and mechanical assemblies that require a high-strength inch-series fastener. The 7/16-14 UNC thread is a widely specified size in equipment frames, mounting brackets, flanged connections, and machinery bases. The partial threading allows the unthreaded shank to bear shear loads, making it appropriate for applications where a grip length is needed between clamped surfaces. Each package contains 10 pieces.

Key Features

• Grade 8 steel construction meets high proof load and tensile strength requirements for heavy-duty bolted joints
• Zinc yellow dichromate finish provides corrosion resistance and is visually distinguishable from lower-grade hardware
• Partially threaded shank allows unthreaded grip length for shear-bearing applications
• 7/16-14 UNC thread form for compatibility with standard inch-series nuts and tapped holes
• Conforms to ASME B18.2.1 dimensional standard for hex cap screws
• Sold in a 10-piece package with a minimum order quantity of 1

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series hex cap screw for use with 7/16-14 UNC nuts, washers, and tapped holes in structural and mechanical assemblies requiring Grade 8 fastener specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by qualified mechanics or maintenance technicians using a standard hex wrench or socket set sized for a 7/16-14 UNC fastener. Always verify thread engagement depth and clamped joint requirements before torquing. Do not mix Grade 8 cap screws with lower-grade nuts, as mismatched hardware can compromise joint integrity. Follow applicable equipment manufacturer torque specifications and relevant industry standards for the assembly being serviced.
