Value Collection 364-5208-01 Flat Socket Cap Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 364-5208-01 is a flat socket cap screw designed for precision fastening applications where a flush or countersunk finish is required. Sized at 2-56 x 1/2 inches with full UNC threading, it features an 82-degree flat head and a hex socket drive. Constructed from alloy steel with a black oxide finish, this screw delivers solid mechanical strength and moderate corrosion resistance in a compact, low-profile form. It is typically installed by machinists, maintenance technicians, and assembly professionals working with close-tolerance hardware.

This fastener is well suited for light-duty mechanical assemblies, instrument panels, electronic enclosures, and precision equipment where a flush seating surface is critical. The 2-56 thread size targets fine-thread applications in thin or delicate materials. The black oxide finish helps reduce light reflection and provides mild surface protection in dry or controlled environments. Sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per order.

Key Features

• 82-degree flat head seats flush in standard countersunk holes
• Hex socket drive for precise torque application in confined spaces
• Fully threaded 1/2-inch overall length for maximum thread engagement
• Alloy steel construction for reliable tensile and shear strength
• Black oxide finish reduces glare and provides light surface protection
• Meets ANSI B18.3, ANSI B18.8.2, ANSI B2.2, and MS16555 fastener standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-fit fastener for any application requiring a 2-56 UNC fully threaded flat socket cap screw with an 82-degree head angle conforming to ANSI B18.3 specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a correctly sized hex key or Allen driver matched to the socket head. Ensure the receiving hole is properly countersunk to 82 degrees before driving the fastener to avoid head damage or improper seating. Use a torque-limiting driver when working with fine-thread screws in softer base materials to prevent thread stripping. Follow applicable industry standards and equipment manufacturer guidelines for fastener torque and replacement intervals.
