Value Collection 36867 Flat Socket Cap Screw 5/8-11 X 2 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 36867 is a flat socket cap screw designed for applications requiring a flush or countersunk fastening profile. It features an 82-degree flat head with a 3/8-inch hex socket drive, allowing installation with a standard hex key or Allen wrench. The screw is fully threaded along its 2-inch length, with a 5/8-11 UNC thread size. Constructed from alloy steel with a black oxide finish, it delivers solid mechanical strength and moderate corrosion resistance in indoor and protected environments. Machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians commonly install these fasteners where a protruding head is not acceptable.

This flat socket cap screw is suited for machine assembly, fixture building, tooling plates, and structural fastening where a flush surface is required. The 5/8-11 UNC thread pattern is a common coarse-thread standard, making these screws compatible with a wide range of tapped holes in steel, aluminum, and cast iron components across industrial, commercial, and light manufacturing settings. The black oxide finish blends well in applications where aesthetics alongside function are a consideration.

Key Features

• 82-degree flat head profile for flush or countersunk installations
• 3/8-inch hex socket drive for use with standard hex keys or Allen drivers
• 5/8-11 UNC fully threaded, 2-inch overall length
• Alloy steel construction for high tensile strength
• Black oxide finish for moderate corrosion resistance and low-glare appearance
• Meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F835 fastener standards

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard 5/8-11 UNC tapped holes per ASME/ANSI B18.3 specifications, suitable for alloy steel, aluminum, and cast iron mating components in industrial and mechanical assembly applications.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 3/8-inch hex key or Allen wrench of appropriate length and quality to achieve proper torque without rounding the socket. Ensure the mating tapped hole is clean and free of debris before driving the fastener. For structural or load-bearing assemblies, verify that fastener grade and thread engagement depth meet the requirements of the applicable design standard. Avoid over-torquing, which can strip threads or compromise the fastener head.
