Value Collection 353-5812-01 Button Socket Cap Screw 8-32

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 353-5812-01 is a button socket cap screw designed for medium-strength fastening applications where a low-profile head is required. It features a Torx Plus IP15 drive, which provides superior torque transfer and reduced driver cam-out compared to standard hex socket drives. The screw is fully threaded with an 8-32 UNC-RH thread form, measures 3/4 inch under the head, and is manufactured from alloy steel with a black oxide finish for mild corrosion resistance. Hardness is rated at 39-44 HRC, meeting ANSI/ASME B18.3 and ASTM F835 standards. Licensed tradespeople and maintenance technicians use these in equipment assembly, panel work, and machine guarding.

This fastener suits residential and light commercial applications where a flush or near-flush head profile is needed in tight clearance areas. Common uses include electronics enclosures, sheet metal assemblies, HVAC equipment panels, and general machine assembly where the button head keeps the fastener profile low. The 8-32 thread size and 3/4-inch length make it appropriate for medium-gauge material stacking without bottoming out. This item is sold individually but requires a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per order.

Key Features

• Torx Plus IP15 drive for high torque transfer and reduced cam-out during installation
• Fully threaded 8-32 UNC right-hand thread for consistent engagement throughout the length
• 39-44 HRC alloy steel construction for reliable mechanical strength
• Black oxide coating provides mild corrosion and abrasion resistance
• Low-profile button head reduces clearance conflicts in confined assemblies
• Meets ANSI/ASME B18.3 and ASTM F835 fastener standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 8-32 button socket cap screw suitable for use in threaded holes or with appropriate nuts in general mechanical, electrical, and HVAC equipment assemblies where a low-profile Torx Plus drive head is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a Torx Plus IP15 bit or driver rated for alloy steel fasteners at this hardness range. Verify the mating thread is clean and free of debris before driving to avoid galling. Torque to the specification listed in the applicable equipment service documentation or engineering drawing. Always de-energize electrical equipment before servicing any panel or enclosure fasteners.
