Product Details
Grade 5 hex cap screws are made from medium carbon steel and are designed for applications that require medium strength, particularly where controlled clamp force and high loads are essential. These screws can be inserted into internally tapped holes or employed with a nut. It is recommended to always use Grade 5 hex cap screws with a hardened washer under the turned component. The specifications for these screws are governed by SAE J429, which outlines the material and performance requirements, while ASME B18.2.1 details the dimensional requirements.
