Value Collection R30081232 Hex Head Cap Screw 7/16-14

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R30081232 is a fully threaded hex head cap screw designed for fastening applications that require corrosion resistance and dimensional precision. Manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel, this fastener provides strong resistance to oxidation, chlorides, and marine or chemical environments. The 7/16-14 UNC thread profile and 1-inch length under head make it a standard choice for structural and mechanical assembly work across a range of industrial, plumbing, and HVAC service applications. It ships uncoated, with the base alloy providing the corrosion protection. Installation is performed by mechanics, pipefitters, plumbers, and general maintenance trades.

This cap screw is suited for use in environments where standard carbon steel or zinc-plated fasteners are not appropriate due to moisture, chemical exposure, or sanitary requirements. Typical applications include pipe flange connections, equipment mounting in wet mechanical rooms, pool and water treatment equipment, and marine-adjacent installations. The DIN 933 standard governs the head dimensions and thread geometry, ensuring interchangeability with other conforming hardware. Minimum order quantity is 10 pieces.

Key Features

• Grade 316 stainless steel construction for superior corrosion resistance in chloride and moisture-heavy environments
• Fully threaded shank for maximum thread engagement along the full 1-inch body length
• 7/16-14 UNC thread size for compatibility with standard inch-series tapped holes and nuts
• Uncoated finish — corrosion protection provided entirely by the 316 alloy, not a surface coating
• Conforms to DIN 933 standard for hex head geometry and thread tolerances
• Suitable for trade applications including plumbing, pool equipment, HVAC, and industrial maintenance

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series hex head cap screw for use with 7/16-14 UNC tapped holes and conforming hex nuts in any application requiring Grade 316 stainless steel fasteners.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed using a standard hex wrench or socket set sized for the hex head. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before driving the fastener. When installing into dissimilar metals, consider galvanic compatibility to prevent accelerated corrosion at the joint. Do not use impact tools at full torque without a torque-limiting socket, as 316 stainless is susceptible to galling under high-speed rotational load.
