Overview

The Minerallac Company 55423J is a 3/8-16 x 1-1/2" Grade 5 hex head tap bolt with full threading, designed for secure mechanical fastening in industrial and construction applications. This bolt features a zinc-plated finish for basic corrosion resistance in indoor or sheltered outdoor environments, making it suitable for general-purpose use where reliable joint integrity is required. Key specifications include a 3/8" nominal thread diameter with 16 threads per inch (TPI), a 1.5" overall length, and a hexagonal head for tool engagement with standard wrenches or sockets. The full threading ensures maximum thread engagement when mated with internally threaded holes or paired with nuts, reducing the risk of loosening under vibration. The Grade 5 classification indicates medium tensile strength, providing a balance of durability and cost-effectiveness for typical fastening tasks. This tap bolt is packaged in jars of 100 units, with master cartons containing 600 units for efficient inventory management and bulk handling. It is ideal for applications such as machinery assembly, structural connections, equipment mounting, and general construction where a robust, threaded fastener is needed. The zinc plating offers basic corrosion protection, extending service life in non-aggressive environments. Compatible with standard 3/8" hardware, this bolt integrates seamlessly into existing assemblies without requiring special tools or modifications. Its design prioritizes ease of installation and reliable performance in static or low-dynamic load scenarios. For applications demanding higher corrosion resistance, consider stainless steel alternatives such as the Minerallac 74426J (3/8-16 x 1-1/2" Type 18-8 Stainless Steel Tap Bolt).
