Value Collection 353-5806-01 Button Socket Cap Screw 8-32

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 353-5806-01 is an 8-32 x 3/8 inch button socket cap screw designed for applications requiring a low-profile fastener with high clamping strength. Manufactured from alloy steel and finished with a black oxide coating, this screw offers improved corrosion resistance and reduced light reflection. The Torx Plus IP15 drive reduces cam-out during installation, making it well suited for production and assembly environments where fastener reliability matters. At 39-44 HRC hardness, this fastener meets ANSI/ASME B18.3 and ASTM F835 standards. It is fully threaded with a right-hand UNRC thread form and a 3A thread fit class for consistent engagement.

This button socket cap screw is used in light mechanical assemblies, electronic enclosures, machine guarding, and fabrication applications where a flush, rounded head profile is required. The black oxide finish blends cleanly into finished assemblies and reduces glare in exposed installations. It is appropriate for indoor mechanical environments and is commonly specified in OEM equipment assembly, maintenance, and repair work. Quantities are sold individually with a minimum order of 100 pieces.

Key Features

• Torx Plus IP15 drive reduces cam-out and extends bit life during high-cycle installation
• Alloy steel construction with 39-44 HRC hardness per ASTM F835
• Black oxide coating provides mild corrosion resistance and low-glare appearance
• Fully threaded 8-32 UNRC right-hand thread with 3A fit class
• Low-profile button head design keeps fastener below or flush with surrounding surfaces
• Meets ANSI/ASME B18.3 dimensional standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 8-32 x 3/8 inch button socket cap screw suitable for use in any application requiring an ANSI/ASME B18.3 compliant Torx Plus drive fastener in that thread size and length.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a Torx Plus IP15 bit or driver; standard Torx T15 bits may fit but are not recommended as they can damage the drive recess. Confirm mating thread condition and thread class compatibility before installation. Proper torque should be applied using a calibrated torque driver appropriate for 8-32 fasteners in the material being joined. Always ensure the mating component is secure and work surfaces are stable before driving the fastener.
