Product Details
Grade 5 hex cap screws are made from medium carbon steel and are used in applications where medium strength is necessary, typically those requiring controlled clamp force and high loads. These screws can be screwed into internally tapped holes or used with a nut. Grade 5 hex cap screws should always be used with a hardened washer under the turned component. SAE J429 covers the material and performance requirements of Grade 5 hex cap screws, while ASME B18.2.1 covers the dimensional requirements.
