7/16" x 20 TPI UNF Fine Hex Bolts & Set Screws are general-purpose six-sided-head bolts used to clamp two parts together with a spanner on the head and a nut on the other side.

About Hex Bolts & Set Screws

Hex Bolts and Set Screws are the workhorses of the bolting world. The default fastener whenever you need to clamp two parts together with a spanner on both ends. Six-sided head driven with a spanner or socket, and a fully or partially threaded shank. A hex bolt is partially threaded (plain shank under the head); a hex set screw is fully threaded right up to the head. Used for metal-to-metal joints, machinery assembly, structural framing, and any application that needs reliable clamp load.

Recommended use Indoor and dry-environment use only. Common in automotive, machinery and electrical assembly where the bolt is not exposed to weather, condensation or wet service.


Not sure if this is the right size or thread?
Two ways to confirm before you order - whichever you already know about your fastener.
1If you know the fastener diameter

Compare your fastener to our visual size guide to confirm M-size, pitch and length.

2If you have the spanner or socket

Match your spanner / socket AF (across-flats) to the bolt size it fits. Our reference chart covers every metric and imperial size we stock.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between an 7/16" Hex Bolt and a Hex Set Screw?
A hex bolt has a partially threaded shank with a plain section under the head. A hex set screw is fully threaded.

Partial thread is preferred where the unthreaded shank passes through the joint (better bearing area). Full thread is used where the joint clamps near the head.

What is the strength rating of this 7/16" Hex Bolt?
Refer to the product title for the property class and the head marking for the grade.

See the head marking chart and full strength table on our site for the full conversion table.

What standard is an 7/16" Hex Bolt manufactured to?
Manufactured to AS2465-1999.

The standard defines head dimensions, thread tolerance, mechanical properties and the marking convention on the head.

What spanner / driver size do I need for an 7/16" Hex Bolt?
Drive type: Hex. Spanner / socket size: 5/8".

Drive these with a matching spanner, socket or driver bit. Using an oversized tool will round off the head.

Should I use a washer with this 7/16" Hex Bolt?
Yes. A flat washer under the bolt head and under the nut spreads bearing load and protects the surface.

Add a spring washer or Nyloc nut if the joint is subject to vibration. For metal-to-metal structural connections, hardened washers may be required.

Can 7/16" Hex Bolts be used outdoors or in wet environments?
Indoor or dry-environment use only. Zinc plating gives limited corrosion protection.

Refer to the Material & Coating section above for the full environmental rating of this finish.

Are 7/16" Hex Bolts magnetic?
Carbon-steel hex bolts are magnetic.

All plain-carbon and alloy steel fasteners are magnetic. Zinc plating, hot-dip galvanising and zinc-flake coatings do not change this. The magnetism comes from the steel core, not the surface treatment.


Material & Coating

Zinc Electroplated zinc on carbon steel. A thin (5 to 12 micron) bright (clear-passivated) zinc layer applied by electrolysis. Bright silvery finish.

Important NOT suitable for outdoor, wet, marine or treated-timber applications. The thin coating is consumed quickly by rainwater or treated-pine preservatives. For outdoor use, specify hot-dip galvanised.

Grade Imperial fasteners are classified as grade 2, 5, 8, 9, 10, 12. See the head marking chart and full strength table.


Thread Pitch & Terminology

Thread Pitch (Imperial) Imperial fasteners measure thread pitch as TPI (threads per inch), the number of thread peaks per inch of fastener length. Imperial systems include UNC (coarse), UNF (fine), BSW (Whitworth) and BSF (British Standard Fine). This product has 20 TPI, meaning 20 thread peaks per inch.

How to Measure

Fastener Length This product has a head that sits on top of the material, so the length is measured from directly under the head to the tip of the thread. The head itself is not included in the size.

Thread Length On a bolt the thread length runs from the start of the unthreaded section (called the shank) to the end of the thread. Set screws are fully threaded. If the length is 75mm, the thread length is 75mm. To view the thread length, select a length above.
