Value Collection 211207PR Flat Socket Cap Screw 3/8-16

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 211207PR is a flat socket cap screw designed for flush or countersunk fastening applications in metal fabrication, machine assembly, and general industrial work. It features a 82-degree flat head driven by a 7/32-inch hex socket, allowing the fastener to sit flush with or below the surface of the workpiece. Sized at 3/8-16 UNC x 5/8 inches overall length, it is fully threaded from tip to head. Machined from alloy steel with a black oxide finish, it delivers solid mechanical strength and moderate corrosion resistance in controlled environments. Licensed trades and industrial maintenance technicians reach for this fastener when a low-profile, recessed-head connection is required.

This screw is suited for use in machinery housings, jigs, fixtures, brackets, and structural assemblies where a standard hex-head bolt would protrude beyond the surface. The 3/8-16 UNC thread is a coarse imperial thread pattern, making it compatible with standard tapped holes of the same specification. Fully threaded construction ensures maximum thread engagement across the full 5/8-inch grip length, which is especially useful in shallow-tapped blind holes.

Key Features

• 82-degree flat head profile for flush or countersunk seating
• 7/32-inch hex socket drive for use with standard Allen or hex keys
• Fully threaded 3/8-16 UNC coarse thread over 5/8-inch overall length
• Alloy steel construction for high tensile and shear strength
• Black oxide finish provides moderate rust resistance and reduces light reflection
• Meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F835 fastener standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-stock fastener for any tapped hole with a 3/8-16 UNC thread specification requiring an 82-degree countersunk flat socket head.

Installation Notes

Install using a 7/32-inch hex key or Allen driver; ensure the driver is fully seated to avoid cam-out and socket damage. Verify that the mating tapped hole is clean and free of debris before threading. Apply appropriate thread-locking compound or torque per your assembly specification when vibration is a concern. Follow applicable ASME or facility maintenance procedures when servicing machinery with this fastener.
