Value Collection MP72222 Hex Socket Cap Screw 1/2-13 Unc 10 Pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MP72222 is a hex socket cap screw designed for secure, high-torque fastening in mechanical assemblies, fixtures, and structural applications. It features a 1/2-13 UNC thread size and a 3/4 inch length under head with full threading along the entire shank. The drive is a 3/8 inch hex socket, compatible with standard Allen keys and hex socket drivers. Constructed from alloy steel with a black oxide finish, this screw delivers solid tensile strength and basic corrosion resistance. It meets ASME B18.3 and ASTM A574 standards. This listing includes a pack of 10 screws. Machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians commonly install this fastener type across industrial and commercial equipment.

This socket cap screw is suited for use in machinery frames, jigs, fixtures, gearboxes, and equipment panels where a flush or recessed fastener head is required. The 1/2-13 UNC coarse thread is a standard size found across a wide range of steel and aluminum components in manufacturing, fabrication, and general mechanical maintenance. The black oxide coating reduces light reflection and provides light surface protection in dry or mildly humid environments. It is appropriate for both new installations and replacement of worn or damaged hardware in existing assemblies.

Key Features

• 1/2-13 UNC coarse thread for broad compatibility with standard tapped holes
• 3/4 inch length under head with full threading along the entire shank
• 3/8 inch hex socket drive for use with Allen keys or hex bit drivers
• Alloy steel construction meets ASTM A574 for high tensile strength
• Black oxide finish provides light corrosion resistance and low reflectivity
• Conforms to ASME B18.3 dimensional standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/2-13 UNC hex socket cap screw for use in any tapped hole or threaded insert conforming to UNC coarse thread specifications at this diameter and pitch.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists, millwrights, or maintenance technicians using a 3/8 inch hex key or socket bit. De-energize and lock out all equipment before replacing fasteners in live machinery per applicable OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Verify thread engagement depth in the mating component before torquing to avoid thread stripping. Do not exceed the rated tensile strength of the fastener by over-torquing beyond manufacturer or application specifications.
