Value Collection R57001068 Hex Socket Cap Screw 7/16-14

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R57001068 is a hex socket cap screw designed for secure, high-torque fastening in mechanical assemblies, structural connections, and industrial applications. It features a 7/16-14 UNC thread and measures 4 inches under the head. Drive engagement is through a 3/8-inch internal hex socket, compatible with standard Allen-style drivers and hex keys. The fastener is manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish, providing corrosion resistance suitable for both indoor and outdoor service environments. This screw is a standard choice for maintenance technicians, millwrights, and fabricators working in plumbing, HVAC, equipment mounting, and general mechanical assembly.

This cap screw is suited for residential and commercial applications where corrosion resistance and reliable clamping force are required. Common installation scenarios include equipment brackets, pipe hangers, junction box mounting, and structural panel fastening. The 7/16-14 UNC coarse thread offers good resistance to loosening under vibration, making it appropriate for mechanical systems subject to operational movement. The uncoated finish allows for use with standard stainless hardware in mixed-fastener assemblies without galvanic incompatibility concerns when paired with stainless nuts and washers.

Key Features

• 7/16-14 UNC coarse thread for high pullout strength and vibration resistance
• 4-inch length under head accommodates thicker stack-ups and deep clearance holes
• 3/8-inch internal hex drive for use with standard hex keys and socket drivers
• 18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance without coating
• Bright uncoated finish maintains dimensional accuracy and thread tolerance

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style and aftermarket replacement hex socket cap screw for assemblies requiring a 7/16-14 UNC thread fastener with a 4-inch under-head length in stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by maintenance technicians, millwrights, or qualified tradespeople using a 3/8-inch hex key or socket driver. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before installation. Apply appropriate thread lubricant or anti-seize compound where stainless-to-stainless galling is a concern.
