Value Collection 019257PR 3/8-16 X 1-1/4 in Hex Socket Cap Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 019257PR is a low socket cap hex socket screw designed for applications where a reduced-profile head is required. Sized at 3/8-16 UNC thread with a 1-1/4 inch length measured under the head, this fastener is fully threaded and driven with a 3/16 inch hex key. Constructed from alloy steel with a black oxide finish, it delivers solid tensile strength with moderate corrosion resistance in dry or lightly oiled environments. It meets ASME/ANSI B18.8 standards and is suited for machine assembly, tooling fixtures, and mechanical equipment where head clearance is limited.

This screw is a standard inch-series fastener commonly used in manufacturing, industrial maintenance, and mechanical assembly work. The low socket cap head profile makes it a practical choice where a standard socket cap head would interfere with mating components or require a recessed pocket. Machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians regularly specify this type in precision fixtures, jigs, and structural assemblies. The UNC thread form is widely compatible with standard tapped holes in steel and aluminum components.

Key Features

• Low socket cap head profile reduces installed height compared to standard socket cap screws
• Fully threaded 3/8-16 UNC thread for maximum thread engagement across the full length
• 3/16 inch hex key drive for secure torque application with standard Allen wrenches
• Alloy steel construction provides high tensile strength for structural and mechanical fastening
• Black oxide finish offers mild corrosion resistance and reduced light reflection in precision assemblies
• Meets ASME/ANSI B18.8 fastener standard for dimensional consistency

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series replacement or OEM-style socket cap screw for use in any application requiring a 3/8-16 UNC fully threaded low socket cap fastener per ASME/ANSI B18.8.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 3/16 inch hex key or Allen driver rated for the torque demands of the assembly. Ensure the tapped receiving hole meets 3/8-16 UNC thread specifications before installation. Clean threads of debris and apply thread lubricant or anti-seize as appropriate for the service environment. Black oxide finish is not a heavy-duty corrosion barrier — avoid direct outdoor or high-moisture exposure without supplemental coating.
