Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

  • Superior corrosion resistance with 18-8 stainless steel construction and black oxide finish, ideal for harsh industrial environments
  • Precise alignment and positioning thanks to the 1/2" shoulder diameter with tight tolerances (-0.004" to -0.002") for stable component mounting
  • High mechanical reliability with 70,000 psi tensile strength and 35,000 psi shear strength to withstand demanding loads
  • Secure installation and removal using the 1/4" hex drive socket head with knurled texture for enhanced grip
  • Consistent thread engagement with Class 3A UNC coarse threads ensuring reliable fastening in right-hand applications
  • Extended service life from Rockwell B55 hardness, providing excellent wear resistance and durability
  • Regulatory compliance assurance meeting ASME B18.3 standards, RoHS 3, and REACH for global industrial use

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This 5/16"-18 UNC shoulder screw delivers critical engineering value in precision machinery, automation systems, and rotating assemblies where exact alignment is paramount. The 1/2" shoulder diameter with controlled tolerances acts as a precise pivot or spacer, eliminating misalignment issues in industrial fasteners. Manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with a black oxide finish, it resists corrosion in humid or chemical-exposed environments, while the Class 3A thread fit and coarse thread spacing ensure quick, secure assembly. The knurled socket head enhances tool grip during high-torque applications, reducing slippage and improving workplace safety in maintenance-heavy sectors.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This shoulder screw maintains precise dimensional control with a shoulder diameter tolerance of -0.004" to -0.002" and shoulder length tolerance of -0.005" to 0.005". Thread specifications include 5/16"-18 UNC coarse threads with Class 3A fit for superior engagement. It is manufactured in compliance with ASME B18.3 standards and is verified as RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) Compliant and REACH (EC 1907/2006) Compliant, ensuring adherence to international safety and environmental regulations.
