Value Collection VS1164PR Hex Cap Screw 1/2-13 X 1 in Silicon Bronze

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION VS1164PR is a fully threaded hex head cap screw designed for mechanical fastening applications requiring corrosion resistance in wet or marine environments. It measures 1/2-13 thread size with a 1-inch length under head and is manufactured from silicon bronze alloy grade C651. The bright, uncoated finish preserves the natural surface of the alloy. With a 3/4-inch hex drive and compliance with ASME B18.2.1, this fastener is suited for use by plumbers, marine contractors, pipefitters, and general mechanical tradespeople who need a reliable non-ferrous fastener in corrosive service conditions.

Silicon bronze fasteners like the VS1164PR are commonly specified in plumbing, marine, and coastal construction applications where steel hardware would be subject to accelerated corrosion. The UNC thread standard makes this screw compatible with standard inch-system tapped holes and nuts. It is appropriate for use in residential and light commercial settings, particularly where contact with water, treated lumber, or chemically aggressive environments is expected. This screw is sold individually but carries a minimum order quantity of 5 pieces.

Key Features

• Silicon bronze C651 alloy construction provides excellent corrosion resistance in marine and wet environments
• Fully threaded along the 1-inch length under head for maximum thread engagement
• UNC thread standard ensures compatibility with standard inch-system hardware
• Conforms to ASME B18.2.1 dimensional standards
• Bright, uncoated finish maintains alloy surface integrity without added coatings
• 3/4-inch hex drive accepts standard hex wrenches and sockets

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style and aftermarket fastener for use in any application requiring a 1/2-13 UNC fully threaded hex head cap screw in silicon bronze, including plumbing assemblies, marine hardware, and corrosion-resistant mechanical joints.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified tradesperson using a standard 3/4-inch hex socket or wrench. Always confirm that the mating tapped hole or nut is also rated for the expected load and environment before fastening. Avoid mixing silicon bronze fasteners with dissimilar metals in applications where galvanic corrosion may be a concern. Follow applicable mechanical codes for torque and fastener specifications relevant to the assembly.
