Value Collection 063028PR Button Socket Cap Screw 8-32

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 063028PR is a button socket cap screw designed for fastening applications where a low-profile head and strong corrosion resistance are required. It features an 8-32 UNC thread at 3/8 inch length under head and is machined from 316 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish. The button head design sits close to the surface, reducing snag points in assemblies. Drive engagement is via a 3/32 inch hex socket, requiring an appropriately sized ball-end or standard hex key. This screw meets ANSI/ASME B18.3 fastener standards and carries a Class 3A thread fit for consistent engagement tolerance. Machinists, millwrights, equipment assemblers, and field service technicians working with stainless hardware will find this fastener suited to general mechanical and light structural applications.

This fastener is used in applications demanding corrosion-resistant hardware, including food processing equipment, marine assemblies, chemical handling equipment, and outdoor mechanical enclosures. The 316 stainless steel alloy provides elevated resistance to chloride environments compared to 304-grade material. The compact button head profile makes it a practical choice in panel mounting, instrument enclosures, and any assembly where clearance above the fastened surface is limited. Sold individually per package with a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces.

Key Features

• 316 stainless steel construction for superior corrosion resistance in chloride and marine environments
• Button head profile provides low-profile, snag-free surface presentation
• 3/32 inch hex socket drive for precise torque application with standard hex keys
• ANSI/ASME B18.3 fastener standard compliance ensures dimensional consistency
• Class 3A thread fit for reliable mating with standard UNC threaded components
• Bright, uncoated finish preserves base material properties without added plating

Compatibility

Designed as a standard UNC button socket cap screw compatible with any 8-32 threaded hole or insert meeting ANSI/ASME B18.3 specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed using a 3/32 inch hex key or ball-end driver. Ensure the mating threaded hole or nut is clean and free of debris before driving the fastener. Do not exceed the recommended seating torque for the fastener size and material to avoid thread galling, which is common with stainless steel fasteners — the use of an anti-galling lubricant or anti-seize compound is standard practice. Follow applicable mechanical codes and equipment manufacturer specifications for torque requirements.
