Value Collection 354-2516-01 Flat Socket Cap Screw 5/16-24

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 354-2516-01 is a flat socket cap screw designed for precision fastening applications that require a flush or countersunk installation. The screw features a T40 Torx Plus drive and an 82-degree flat head profile, both of which allow higher torque transfer compared to standard hex-socket designs. The 5/16-24 UNF thread and full-thread engagement along the 1-inch overall length make it well suited for use in tight assemblies where thread count and holding strength matter. Manufactured from alloy steel with a black oxide finish, it meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F835 standards. Mechanical contractors, maintenance technicians, and industrial assembly professionals are the typical installers.

This screw is appropriate for use in machine assemblies, industrial equipment, and fabricated structures where a low-profile, flush-mount fastener is required. The 5/16-24 UNF fine thread pitch is common in precision mechanical assemblies and applications where vibration resistance or fine adjustment is needed. The black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance in indoor or low-moisture environments. This fastener is sold individually but carries a minimum order quantity of 100 units, making it suited for shop stock or production runs.

Key Features

• 82-degree flat head profile for flush or countersunk installation
• T40 Torx Plus drive for improved torque transfer and reduced cam-out
• 5/16-24 UNF fully threaded for maximum thread engagement over 1-inch overall length
• Alloy steel construction meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F835 standards
• Black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance in low-moisture environments
• Minimum order quantity of 100 units suits production and shop-stock applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-stock fastener for assemblies requiring a 5/16-24 UNF flat socket cap screw with an 82-degree head and T40 Torx Plus drive, conforming to ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F835.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a T40 Torx Plus bit or driver rated for the torque requirements of the assembly. Countersink the mating material to an 82-degree angle to ensure proper head seating and flush surface contact. Follow the fastener torque specifications established by the equipment manufacturer or applicable ASME standards for the joint design. Inspect threads for damage before installation and do not reuse fasteners in safety-critical joints.
