Value Collection R64406346 Hex Socket Cap Screw 1/2-13

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R64406346 is a hex socket cap screw designed for secure, high-torque fastening applications in mechanical assemblies, structural connections, and equipment fabrication. Threaded to a 1/2-13 UNC specification with a 1-1/2 inch length under head, it accepts a 3/8 inch hex drive for reliable torque transfer with an Allen key or hex bit. Manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish, this fastener offers good corrosion resistance and strength suitable for both indoor and outdoor service environments. Installers in plumbing, HVAC, electrical, and general mechanical trades will find this screw a dependable choice for standard UNC fastening work.

This hex socket cap screw is suited for use in residential and light commercial applications where a 1/2-13 UNC thread form is required. It is commonly installed in equipment frames, pipe supports, panel assemblies, and mechanical enclosures. The 18-8 stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for environments with moderate moisture exposure. No specific OEM equipment compatibility is stated for this fastener beyond its standard UNC thread form and dimensional specifications.

Key Features

• 1/2-13 UNC thread size for broad compatibility with standard inch-series fastener applications
• 1-1/2 inch length under head provides adequate grip depth for typical structural and mechanical connections
• 3/8 inch hex drive allows use with common Allen keys and hex bit socket sets
• 18-8 stainless steel construction delivers corrosion resistance in moisture-present environments
• Bright, uncoated finish — no added plating that could affect dimensional tolerances in close-fit applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-form replacement or stock fastener for any application requiring a 1/2-13 UNC hex socket cap screw with a 1-1/2 inch length under head and 3/8 inch hex drive.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by mechanical, HVAC, plumbing, or electrical tradespeople using a 3/8 inch hex key or compatible bit driver. Always de-energize equipment and relieve system pressure before replacing or tightening fasteners on live assemblies. Verify thread engagement depth in the mating component before applying final torque to avoid stripping. Follow applicable codes such as NEC or IFGC when fastening within code-governed assemblies.
