Engineered for high-stress applications and critical structural assemblies, the 7/16"-20 x 2" Grade 8 Hex Cap Screw (SKU: 18878) offers the ultimate combination of strength and reliability. These fasteners are manufactured from high-strength medium carbon alloy steel, quenched and tempered to meet rigorous industry standards. With a minimum tensile strength of 150,000 PSI, Grade 8 bolts are significantly stronger than standard Grade 5 hardware, making them the ideal choice for automotive suspension, heavy machinery, and industrial equipment where failure is not an option.
This bolt features a fine thread pitch (20 TPI), which provides superior vibration resistance and allows for finer tension adjustments during installation. The 2-inch length offers ample reach for securing heavy-duty brackets and plates. To ensure long-term performance in demanding environments, each screw is finished with a yellow zinc plating. This specialized coating provides a high level of corrosion resistance against moisture and chemicals while offering the signature gold appearance required for easy identification of high-strength hardware.
Designed with a precision-engineered hexagonal head, these cap screws ensure a secure grip for wrenches and sockets, allowing for high-torque tightening without stripping. Whether you are performing a professional engine build or maintaining heavy industrial gear, these Grade 8 hex cap screws provide the structural integrity and durability your project demands. Sold individually or in bulk to suit your specific maintenance and repair needs.
