Value Collection 011025PR Hex Socket Cap Screw 3-48 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 011025PR is a hex socket cap screw designed for precision fastening in applications where a low-profile, high-strength connection is required. This screw features a 3-48 UNC thread size, a 5/64 inch hex drive, and a 3/16 inch length under head. Constructed from alloy steel with a black oxide coating, it delivers solid mechanical strength and moderate corrosion resistance. The fully threaded shank maximizes thread engagement throughout the entire length, making it well suited for tight-tolerance assemblies. Licensed trades, machinists, and field technicians will find this screw appropriate for precision equipment, instrument panels, and small mechanical assemblies.

This screw is suited for use in light industrial, commercial, and mechanical service environments where small-diameter, fine-pitch fasteners are required. Common applications include electrical enclosures, instrumentation housings, small motor assemblies, and precision mechanical components. The black oxide finish helps reduce light reflection and provides mild surface protection in dry or low-humidity indoor environments. This item is sold in minimum order quantities of 100 pieces per order.

Key Features

• 3-48 UNC thread form for fine-pitch, high-strength engagement in small fastener applications
• 5/64 inch hex socket drive compatible with standard hex keys and ball-end drivers
• 3/16 inch length under head for use in shallow or tight clearance installations
• Fully threaded shank maximizes thread engagement for the entire grip length
• Alloy steel construction meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM A574 fastener standards
• Black oxide coating provides mild corrosion resistance and reduced surface reflectivity

Compatibility

Designed as a standard ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM A574 compliant hex socket cap screw. Suitable for any tapped 3-48 UNC threaded hole requiring a 5/64 inch hex drive and a 3/16 inch length under head.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 5/64 inch hex key or ball-end driver. Ensure the mating threaded hole is clean and properly tapped to 3-48 UNC before installation. Do not overtighten small-diameter screws, as alloy steel fasteners at this size are susceptible to thread stripping if torque is not controlled. Follow applicable ASME fastener standards and equipment manufacturer guidelines for proper seating and torque procedures.
