Value Collection 36848 Flat Socket Cap Screw 7/16-14

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 36848 is a flat socket cap screw designed for flush or countersunk fastening applications in industrial and mechanical assemblies. It features a 82-degree flat head profile with a hex socket drive, allowing installation with a standard hex key. The screw is fully threaded at 7/16-14 UNC and measures 1-1/2 inches in overall length. Manufactured from alloy steel with a black oxide finish, it delivers solid shear and tensile strength while the finish provides light corrosion resistance and reduces light reflection. This screw is sold in packages of 25.

This screw is suited for applications where the fastener head must sit flush with or below a surface, such as machine frames, fixtures, tooling plates, and mechanical assemblies. The UNC thread form and alloy steel construction make it appropriate for general industrial use, maintenance, and repair work. Licensed tradespeople and industrial maintenance technicians are the typical installers. It conforms to ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F835 fastener standards.

Key Features

• 82-degree flat head profile for flush and countersunk installations
• 1/4-inch hex socket drive for standard hex key or bit driver installation
• Fully threaded 7/16-14 UNC for maximum thread engagement
• Alloy steel construction for high tensile and shear strength
• Black oxide finish for light corrosion resistance and reduced reflectivity
• Meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F835 standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 7/16-14 UNC fully threaded flat socket cap screw suitable for countersunk holes in metal assemblies, fixtures, and mechanical components where an 82-degree flat head seating angle is required.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed using a 1/4-inch hex key or socket bit driver; ensure the mating countersunk hole is machined to an 82-degree angle for proper seating. De-energize and lock out any equipment before fastener replacement or assembly work in accordance with applicable OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Do not over-torque alloy steel socket screws in softer base materials; consult engineering references for torque specifications appropriate to the joint design.
