Value Collection R56000242 Hex Head Cap Screw 5/8-11

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R56000242 is a fully threaded hex head cap screw designed for secure fastening in demanding industrial, commercial, and marine applications. Manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel, this fastener delivers strong corrosion resistance in wet, chemical-exposure, and saltwater environments. The screw measures 5 inches under the head with a 5/8-11 UNC thread size, making it suitable for high-load bolted connections where thread engagement and material integrity are both critical. Machinists, millwrights, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians commonly install this type of fastener in process equipment, structural assemblies, and corrosion-prone installations.

This hex cap screw is suited for residential, commercial, and industrial settings where stainless steel fasteners are specified for corrosion resistance. The 5/8-11 UNC thread is a standard coarse-thread designation compatible with matching nuts and tapped holes produced to Unified National Coarse standards. Typical applications include equipment mounting, pipe flange bolting, structural bracketing, and general mechanical assembly where an uncoated, non-plated stainless surface is required or preferred by specification.

Key Features

• Grade 316 stainless steel construction for superior corrosion and chemical resistance
• Fully threaded shank along the full 5-inch length under head for maximum thread engagement
• 5/8-11 UNC thread form meets Unified National Coarse standard
• Uncoated finish maintains base material properties with no added plating or treatment
• Hex drive head accepts standard hex wrenches and impact sockets for efficient installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use fastener compatible with any application specifying a 5/8-11 UNC fully threaded hex head cap screw in Grade 316 stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic, millwright, or maintenance technician familiar with fastener torque requirements for the specific joint design and material being clamped. Always verify that the mating nut or tapped hole is also rated for 5/8-11 UNC thread engagement. Apply appropriate anti-seize compound when joining stainless to stainless components to prevent galling during tightening. Consult the applicable structural or equipment specification for proper torque values before final assembly.
