5/16-18 x 1/2 18-8 Stainless Steel Hex Head Cap Screw is built for conventional hex-head fastening through clearance holes or into tapped parts. In this size range it is treated as a hex head cap screw, with the hex head driven by external tooling rather than an internal socket.
Common application reviews include maintenance replacement work, field repairs, and production equipment. When the design calls for a recessed counterbored fastener or tighter tool clearance, compare 18-8 Socket Head Cap Screws.
18-8 stainless steel is an 18% chromium and 8% nickel austenitic stainless material used for ordinary atmosphere, moisture exposure, washdown, and clean appearance. Cold Headers has supplied specialty fasteners since 1962 and supports exact-size sourcing for hard-to-find industrial hardware.
