Value Collection 211268PR Flat Socket Cap Screw 7/16-14

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 211268PR is a flat socket cap screw designed for countersunk fastening applications in structural and mechanical assemblies. It features a 82-degree flat head with a 1/4-inch hex socket drive and is fully threaded along its 1-1/2-inch overall length at a 7/16-14 UNC thread pitch. Manufactured from alloy steel with a black oxide finish, this screw delivers solid mechanical strength and basic corrosion resistance in indoor and mildly corrosive environments. Licensed tradespeople and maintenance professionals install this type of fastener when a flush surface profile is required. It meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F835 fastener standards.

This flat socket cap screw is suited for use in industrial machinery, equipment frames, tooling fixtures, and general structural assemblies where a recessed, flush-mount fastener is needed. The hex socket drive requires a standard hex key or Allen driver. The black oxide finish makes it common in applications where moderate surface protection and a non-reflective appearance are preferred. It is ordered in multiples of 100, making it appropriate for shop stock, production runs, or service inventory.

Key Features

• 82-degree flat head profile for flush countersunk installation
• 1/4-inch hex socket drive for reliable torque transfer
• Fully threaded 7/16-14 UNC shaft, 1-1/2 inches overall length
• Alloy steel construction for high tensile strength
• Black oxide finish provides basic corrosion resistance and low reflectivity
• Meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F835 standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 7/16-14 UNC fully threaded flat socket cap screw for use in countersunk holes dimensioned to accept an 82-degree flat head per ASME/ANSI B18.3.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists, millwrights, or maintenance technicians using a properly sized 1/4-inch hex key or Allen driver. Ensure the mating countersunk hole is machined to the correct 82-degree angle and depth before driving the screw. Do not overdrive, as alloy steel screws can shear or strip the socket if excessive torque is applied without proper tooling. Follow applicable equipment manufacturer torque specifications for the joint being fastened.
