Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This shoulder screw is engineered to address critical alignment and durability challenges in industrial fastening systems. The 18-8 stainless steel construction, combined with a black oxide finish, provides excellent resistance to corrosion and wear, making it ideal for machinery, automotive, and electronics assembly where exposure to moisture or chemicals is common. The UNC coarse thread and Class 3A thread fit ensure rapid installation and high clamping force, reducing the risk of loosening under vibration. With a robust shoulder diameter of 3/8" and precise tolerances, it offers stable pivoting and spacing in rotating parts, bushings, and linkages, minimizing maintenance and enhancing equipment lifespan in high-tensile applications.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This shoulder screw features a 5/16"-18 UNC thread with Class 3A fit for high precision, and dimensional accuracy including shoulder diameter tolerance of -0.004" to -0.002" and length tolerance of -0.005" to 0.005". It is manufactured in accordance with ASME B18.3 specifications and is fully compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations, ensuring environmental safety and industry-standard reliability.
