Value Collection 364-5206-01 Flat Socket Cap Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 364-5206-01 is a flat socket cap screw designed for precision fastening applications where a flush or countersunk profile is required. Sized at 2-56 x 3/8 inches overall length, this screw features a hex socket drive and an 82-degree flat head geometry. It is fully threaded along its 3/8-inch length and manufactured from alloy steel with a black oxide finish. The black oxide coating provides mild corrosion resistance and reduces light reflection, making it well suited for close-tolerance assemblies. It is installed by machinists, maintenance technicians, and fabricators working on mechanical assemblies that require a low-profile fastener head.

This screw is used in light-duty mechanical assemblies, instrument panels, electronics enclosures, and precision equipment where a flush-mount fastener is necessary. The 2-56 UNC thread size is common in small-format machine screw applications, including fixtures, jigs, and compact mechanical components. Its alloy steel construction provides greater tensile strength than standard carbon steel fasteners, making it appropriate for applications that require reliable clamping force in a small form factor.

Key Features

• 82-degree flat head profile allows flush or countersunk installation
• Hex socket drive for precise torque application with a standard hex key
• Fully threaded 3/8-inch overall length for maximum thread engagement
• Alloy steel construction for elevated tensile strength in small-diameter fasteners
• Black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance and low-glare appearance
• Conforms to ANSI B18.3, ANSI B18.8.2, ANSI B2.2, and MS16555 fastener standards

Compatibility

Designed for use in applications requiring a 2-56 UNC fully threaded flat socket cap screw with an 82-degree head angle and hex socket drive, conforming to ANSI and MS fastener standards.

Installation Notes

Install using a properly sized hex key or Allen driver to avoid rounding the socket. Ensure the mating hole is countersunk to the correct 82-degree angle to achieve a flush seating surface. Follow applicable torque guidelines for 2-56 alloy steel fasteners per your assembly specification. Minimum order quantity is 100 pieces; plan inventory accordingly for production or maintenance use.
