Value Collection MP72268 Hex Socket Cap Screw 5/8-11 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MP72268 is a hex socket cap screw designed for high-strength fastening applications in mechanical, industrial, and trade assemblies. Sized at 5/8-11 UNC with a 1-1/2 inch length under the head, this fully threaded fastener is manufactured from alloy steel and finished with a black oxide coating for corrosion resistance. Drive engagement is through a 1/2 inch hex socket. Sold in a pack of five, these screws meet ASME B18.3 and ASTM A574 standards, confirming consistent dimensional tolerances and mechanical strength. Machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians routinely specify this configuration for structural fastening where high torque and socket access are required.

This screw is suited for general industrial and mechanical assembly work, including equipment mounting, fixture fabrication, and machinery maintenance. The 5/8-11 UNC coarse thread pitch is widely used in steel-to-steel and heavy equipment applications where fast assembly and strong clamping load are priorities. The black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance and reduces light reflection in precision environments. This item is packaged in a quantity of five per unit.

Key Features

• 5/8-11 UNC coarse thread, fully threaded along the length under the head
• 1-1/2 inch length under head for medium-depth fastening applications
• Alloy steel construction meets ASTM A574 for high-strength fastener requirements
• Black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance and a low-reflectance surface
• 1/2 inch hex drive fits standard socket sets and hex keys
• Meets ASME B18.3 dimensional standards for socket head cap screws

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style or general-purpose replacement hex socket cap screw for industrial and mechanical assemblies requiring a 5/8-11 UNC fully threaded socket cap fastener in alloy steel.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic, millwright, or maintenance technician using a calibrated torque wrench and the appropriate 1/2 inch hex socket or Allen key. De-energize and lock out all equipment before fastener installation or removal per applicable OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Do not exceed the rated torque for the fastener grade and base material. Inspect threads for damage before installation and use thread lubricant where specified by the equipment manufacturer.
