Professional Applications & Engineering Value

Engineered for demanding industrial settings, this 18-8 Stainless Steel Socket Head Cap Screw delivers robust performance in machinery, automotive, and heavy equipment assemblies. The UNC coarse thread and Class 3A thread fit minimize cross-threading risks and provide excellent load distribution, addressing common vibration-induced loosening issues. Its partially threaded configuration allows precise clamping where unthreaded shank sections are needed to bear shear loads. The 3/8" hex drive enables efficient installation in confined spaces, while the corrosion-resistant material ensures longevity in moist or chemically aggressive environments, reducing maintenance downtime and total cost of ownership.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This fastener adheres to ASME B18.3 specifications, with a Class 3A thread fit for high precision in unified coarse (UNC) threading. Key dimensional attributes include a 1/2"-13 thread size, 6" length, and partially threaded design with a minimum thread length of 1 1/2". The product is fully compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations, ensuring it meets stringent environmental and safety standards for industrial use.
