Engineered for high-stress applications and critical mechanical assemblies, the 3/8"-24 x 2" Grade 8 Hex Cap Screw (SKU: 18840) offers uncompromising strength and reliability. Manufactured from high-attribute medium carbon alloy steel, this fastener is heat-treated to achieve a minimum tensile strength of 150,000 PSI, making it significantly stronger than standard Grade 5 or Grade 2 bolts.
This specific screw features a fine thread pitch (24 TPI), providing superior vibration resistance and higher clamping force compared to coarse-threaded alternatives. The 2-inch length is ideal for securing heavy-duty automotive components, industrial machinery, and structural steel frameworks where failure is not an option.
To ensure longevity in demanding environments, the bolt is finished with a yellow zinc plating. This protective coating offers a high level of corrosion resistance against moisture and oxidation while providing the characteristic gold iridescent appearance common in professional-grade hardware. The hexagonal head is designed for high-torque installation with standard wrenches or sockets, ensuring a non-slip grip during tightening. Whether you are performing high-performance engine work or maintaining industrial equipment, this Grade 8 hex cap screw delivers the structural integrity and durability required for your most rigorous projects.
