Value Collection -33588-5 Hex Socket Cap Screw 8-32 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION -33588-5 is a hex socket cap screw designed for precision fastening in mechanical assemblies and structural applications. This screw features an 8-32 UNC thread size with a 9/64-inch hex drive and a 2.5-inch length under the head. It is partially threaded and manufactured from alloy steel with a black oxide coating for corrosion resistance in low-moisture environments. Licensed tradespeople, machinists, and maintenance technicians working on light industrial equipment, HVAC assemblies, or mechanical panels will find this a standard fastener choice where a low-profile socket head and reliable torque transmission are required.

This fastener is suited for residential and light commercial mechanical applications where an 8-32 UNC thread engagement is specified. The partial threading allows the unthreaded shank to align and clamp mating components cleanly before the threaded section engages. It is commonly installed in equipment panels, motor mounts, enclosure hardware, and similar assemblies requiring a recessed socket drive for flush or confined installations. Sold in a package quantity of 25, this screw is a practical restocking item for shop bins or field kits.

Key Features

• Partially threaded shank provides clean clamping before thread engagement
• Alloy steel construction meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM A574 standards
• Black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance and reduces light reflection
• Sold in a pack of 25 for easy restocking

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 8-32 UNC hex socket cap screw for use in any application specifying that thread size and a 9/64-inch drive in accordance with ASME/ANSI B18.3.

Installation Notes

Install and remove using a calibrated hex key or Allen driver sized to 9/64 inch. Confirm the receiving thread is clean and free of debris before installation. Power down or de-energize any equipment before accessing fastener locations inside electrical or mechanical enclosures. Follow applicable mechanical codes and equipment manufacturer torque guidance for the specific assembly.
