Value Collection R57001162 Hex Head Cap Screw 1/2-13

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R57001162 is a fully threaded hex head cap screw designed for general mechanical and structural fastening applications. Built to 1/2-13 UNC thread specifications with a 7/8-inch length under head, this fastener is manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel and left uncoated with a bright finish. The 18-8 grade provides solid corrosion resistance in wet or chemically active environments, making it a practical choice where plated carbon steel fasteners would be prone to rust or galvanic degradation. Installation requires a standard hex wrench or socket driver. Commonly used by HVAC technicians, plumbers, and electricians for equipment mounting, panel assembly, and mechanical connections in both indoor and outdoor service environments.

This fastener is suited for residential and commercial trade applications where corrosion-resistant hardware is required. Typical use cases include equipment mounting frames, junction box assemblies, pipe supports, and general mechanical connections in HVAC, plumbing, and electrical installations. The fully threaded shank provides full thread engagement along the entire grip length, which is useful in thin-material or close-tolerance assemblies. Sold individually per unit.

Key Features

• 1/2-13 UNC thread for broad compatibility with standard inch-series nuts and tapped holes
• Fully threaded shank allows maximum thread engagement across the full 7/8-inch grip length
• 18-8 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet and chemically active service environments
• Bright uncoated finish maintains dimensional accuracy without added coating thickness
• Hex head drive accepts standard socket and open-end wrenches

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series UNC hex head cap screw compatible with any 1/2-13 threaded nut, insert, or tapped hole conforming to UNC thread standards.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a standard hex socket or open-end wrench sized for a 1/2-inch fastener. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before assembly. When installing stainless steel fasteners, apply an appropriate anti-seize compound to reduce the risk of galling. Always follow applicable mechanical and structural codes for the trade discipline in which the fastener is used.
