Value Collection R56000940 Hex Socket Cap Screw 7/16-14

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R56000940 is a hex socket cap screw designed for fastening applications that require corrosion resistance and high tensile strength. Threaded at 7/16-14 UNC, this fastener measures 2 inches in length under the head and accepts a 3/8-inch hex drive. It is manufactured from 316 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish, making it well suited for wet, chemical, or marine environments where standard carbon steel fasteners would corrode. Machinists, maintenance mechanics, and industrial technicians use this screw in assemblies where a recessed drive profile is preferred over an external hex head.

This screw is used in general mechanical, structural, and equipment assembly applications across industrial, commercial, and marine environments. The 7/16-14 UNC thread pitch is a coarse-thread standard, making it compatible with standard UNC tapped holes and nuts of the same diameter and pitch. It is commonly found in pump housings, marine hardware, food processing equipment, and chemical processing assemblies where 316 stainless steel is specified for its enhanced molybdenum content and resistance to chloride corrosion.

Key Features

• 316 stainless steel construction provides superior resistance to chlorides and corrosive media compared to 304-grade fasteners
• 7/16-14 UNC coarse thread for compatibility with standard UNC tapped holes and threaded components
• 2-inch length under head suits medium-depth fastening applications
• 3/8-inch hex socket drive allows use with standard hex keys and socket drivers
• Bright, uncoated finish preserves dimensional accuracy and eliminates coating thickness variability

Compatibility

Designed as a standard UNC fastener for use in any application requiring a 7/16-14 threaded socket cap screw. Fits standard 7/16-14 UNC tapped holes.

Installation Notes

Install using a 3/8-inch hex key or socket driver. Ensure the mating tapped hole is clean and free of debris before driving. Power down or de-energize any associated equipment before performing fastener service on live assemblies. Avoid mixing stainless steel fasteners with dissimilar metals in environments where galvanic corrosion may occur.
