It features a 3\/8-16 UNC thread and a 1-1\/4 inch length under head, with full threading along the shank. Manufactured from 4037-grade alloy steel and finished with a yellow cadmium plating, this screw offers solid corrosion resistance and mechanical strength. Drive engagement is achieved with a 5\/16 inch hex socket. Licensed technicians, millwrights, and maintenance professionals use this fastener in assemblies where a clean socket-drive installation is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fastener is suited for a wide range of industrial and mechanical installations where 3\/8-16 UNC threading is specified. The fully threaded shank makes it appropriate for through-hole applications and thinner material assemblies. Its alloy steel construction handles moderate to high load environments. The yellow cadmium coating provides additional corrosion protection, making it a practical choice in environments with exposure to moisture or mild chemicals. It is produced to ASME B18.3 standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-16 UNC thread for broad fastener compatibility in standard inch-series applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-1\/4 inch length under head, fully threaded for maximum thread engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4037-grade alloy steel construction for mechanical strength and durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eYellow cadmium finish provides corrosion resistance in moisture-exposed environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/16 inch hex socket drive for precise torque application and clean installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eManufactured to ASME B18.3 fastener standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard 3\/8-16 UNC hex socket cap screw per ASME B18.3, suitable for use in any application specifying this thread size, drive type, and length under head.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by qualified technicians using a calibrated 5\/16 inch hex key or socket driver. Always de-energize or lock out equipment before replacing fasteners in mechanical assemblies. Confirm thread engagement and torque to the assembly manufacturer's specifications. Avoid over-torquing, which can stress alloy steel fasteners beyond their yield point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8-16 UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Under Head\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreading\u003c\/strong\u003e: Fully Threaded\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex Socket\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Alloy Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4037\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish Coating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yellow Cadmium\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFastener Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASME B18.3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.514 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: MS16997-100\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51689220931890,"sku":"MS16997-100","price":187.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d5a87df559821747724c65aca9d17329.jpg?v=1788256285","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-ms16997-100-hex-socket-cap-screw-3-8-16","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
