Value Collection R63002368 Shoulder Screw 5/16 in 18-8 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63002368 is a shoulder screw machined from 18-8 stainless steel, designed for precision alignment and pivot applications in mechanical assemblies. The unthreaded shoulder measures 5/16 inch in diameter and 5/8 inch in length, providing a smooth, accurate bearing surface. A 1/4-20 UNC threaded shank locks the fastener securely into the mating component. Drive engagement is via a 5/32 inch hex socket, allowing installation with a standard hex key or Allen driver. This fastener is suited for use by machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians working on jigs, fixtures, linkages, and precision equipment.

Shoulder screws of this type are commonly installed in industrial machinery, automation equipment, fixtures, and mechanical linkages where a hardened or controlled-diameter pivot point is required. The 18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance appropriate for moderately humid or washdown environments. The 1/4-20 UNC thread size is a standard inch-series coarse thread widely used across North American equipment and tooling. This fastener is sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 10 units.

Key Features

• 5/16 inch shoulder diameter provides a precise bearing and alignment surface
• 5/8 inch shoulder length suits shallow pivot and spacer applications
• 18-8 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet or humid environments
• 1/4-20 UNC threaded shank for compatibility with standard inch-series tapped holes
• 5/32 inch hex socket drive for installation with a hex key or T-handle driver

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series shoulder screw for use in mechanical assemblies, jigs, fixtures, and linkages requiring a 5/16 inch shoulder diameter and 1/4-20 UNC threaded engagement.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a 5/32 inch hex key. The mating tapped hole must be threaded to 1/4-20 UNC specification to ensure proper thread engagement. De-energize and lock out any equipment before installing or removing fasteners in live assemblies. Do not overtighten; torque to the specification required by the mating assembly design documentation.
