Value Collection MP97056 Hex Head Cap Screw 3/8-16 X 1-1/2 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MP97056 is a 3/8-16 x 1-1/2 inch hex head cap screw manufactured from Grade 5 steel with a bright, uncoated finish. The screw features a partially threaded shank and a Unified National Coarse (UNC) thread form, conforming to ASME B18.2.1 dimensional standards. This fastener is suitable for general mechanical assembly work across HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and light structural applications where a mid-strength steel fastener is required. Licensed tradespeople and maintenance professionals use this screw in panel mounting, equipment brackets, and structural framing connections.

This hex head cap screw is used in a wide range of residential and commercial trade applications. The 3/8-16 UNC thread is one of the most common coarse-thread sizes in mechanical and industrial assembly, making it a practical stocking item for service vans and shop inventory. The partially threaded shank provides a grip area that pulls mating parts together firmly, which is beneficial in flange or bracket connections. Sold in a package of 25 units.

Key Features

• 3/8-16 UNC thread — one of the most widely used coarse-thread fastener sizes in mechanical assembly
• 1-1/2 inch length measured under head — partially threaded shank for solid clamping grip
• Grade 5 steel construction for mid-range tensile strength in general assembly applications
• Bright, uncoated finish — suitable for indoor and protected environments
• Conforms to ASME B18.2.1 dimensional standards for consistent fitment with standard hardware

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose UNC hex head cap screw compatible with any 3/8-16 tapped hole or standard hex nut conforming to inch-series fastener specifications.

Installation Notes

Install with a standard 9/16-inch hex wrench or socket driver appropriate to the torque requirements of the joint material and application. Always verify that the mating thread or nut is also 3/8-16 UNC before installation. In electrical or HVAC panel applications, ensure equipment is de-energized and isolated before removing or reinstalling fasteners. Do not exceed the rated torque for Grade 5 hardware as specified in the applicable mechanical code or equipment documentation.
