Manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish, this screw features a 5\/16-24 UNF thread size and a 2-3\/4 inch length under head. The 1\/4 inch hex drive allows installation with a standard hex key or Allen driver. It is well suited for mechanical assemblies, equipment fabrication, and maintenance tasks across HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general trade work where stainless fasteners are specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis screw is appropriate for use in both residential and light commercial applications where fine-thread engagement and corrosion-resistant material are required. The 5\/16-24 UNF thread is a fine-pitch designation that provides greater thread engagement per inch compared to coarse-thread equivalents, making it a common choice in metal-to-metal assemblies and equipment panels. Installers working in humid, wet, or chemically exposed environments frequently specify 18-8 stainless fasteners to reduce the risk of corrosion-related fastener failure over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/16-24 UNF fine thread for strong metal-to-metal engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-3\/4 inch length under head suits deeper fastening applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright, uncoated finish maintains dimensional accuracy for tight tolerances\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4 inch hex drive compatible with standard hex keys and Allen drivers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard 5\/16-24 UNF hex socket cap screw suitable for general metal fastening applications across trade and industrial use where 18-8 stainless steel and fine-thread specifications are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed using a 1\/4 inch hex key or Allen driver. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before driving. Stainless steel fasteners are susceptible to galling during installation — apply an appropriate anti-seize compound to the threads when working with stainless-to-stainless assemblies. Power down or de-energize any equipment before accessing fastened panels or enclosures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16-24 UNF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Under Head\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18-8\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright \/ Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31161501\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: R57001048\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51711938527538,"sku":"R57001048","price":618.84,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/0c9a2a0009891924a2ca223b5da382b3_00165498-01c0-4011-8493-e75db76e37d2.jpg?v=1788481682","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-r57001048-hex-socket-cap-screw-5-16-24","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
