1/2-13 x 2-1/2 Coarse Hex Cap - Grade 5 Box/50

Overview

The 1/2-13 x 2-1/2 Coarse Hex Cap Screw – Grade 5, Box/50 (00340) is designed for hardware fastening applications requiring a standard coarse-thread hex cap screw driven by a wrench.

Technical Features

• Grade 5 Strength Rating: Meets medium-strength fastener standards, making these screws suitable for general mechanical and structural assemblies that require a defined tensile rating above standard Grade 2.
• 1/2-13 Coarse Thread: The coarse thread pitch (13 threads per inch) allows for faster installation and improved resistance to cross-threading, reducing assembly time in field and shop environments.
• Hexagonal Head Design: The six-sided head is engineered for wrench engagement, enabling high-torque driving with standard open-end, box-end, or socket wrenches.
• 2-1/2 in. Length: Provides adequate thread engagement for connecting multiple material layers or thicker stock without excessive fastener protrusion.
• Box of 50 Units: Packaged in quantities suitable for small-batch projects or job-site restocking, with a total box weight of 3.91 lb for straightforward handling and transport.

Applications

• General construction and structural assembly requiring medium-strength, wrench-driven fasteners.
• Mechanical equipment assembly where 1/2-13 coarse thread is a specified standard.
• Maintenance and repair operations calling for Grade 5 hex cap screws in ferrous or non-ferrous material connections.
• Workshop fabrication projects requiring reliable, standardized fastener sizing for repeatable assembly.
