Holo-krome 06028 Socket Jam Screw 1-8 Unc Alloy Steel

Product Description

The HOLO-KROME 06028 is a socket jam screw designed for precision fastening applications requiring a low-profile threaded fastener. It features a 1-8 UNC thread size and a 0.5 inch overall length, making it suitable for use where a standard full-height hex socket screw will not fit. The 9/16 inch hex key drive provides solid torque transfer during installation. Manufactured from alloy steel with an uncoated finish, this jam screw delivers reliable mechanical performance in industrial and mechanical assembly environments. Maintenance technicians and machine builders are the primary installers.

This jam screw is used in applications where a threaded fastener must be recessed or where space constraints prevent the use of a standard nut or full-height screw. Common installation scenarios include machine tool assemblies, jig and fixture builds, and equipment maintenance requiring a lock or jam function on threaded rods or shafts. The uncoated alloy steel construction suits dry or lightly lubricated environments in industrial settings.

Key Features

• 1-8 UNC thread for broad compatibility with standard inch-series threaded assemblies
• 0.5 inch overall length for low-profile or space-constrained installations
• 9/16 inch hex key drive for positive torque engagement
• Alloy steel construction for high mechanical strength
• Uncoated finish suitable for dry or lightly lubricated service conditions

Compatibility

Designed as a standard socket jam screw for use in inch-series threaded assemblies requiring a 1-8 UNC fastener with a 0.5 inch overall length.

Installation Notes

Install using a 9/16 inch hex key. Ensure the mating threaded bore is clean and free of debris before threading in the screw. Power down any machinery before performing fastener installation or replacement. Do not exceed the torque capacity of the alloy steel fastener by using extended-handle or impact-assisted hex key tools without proper torque control.
