Value Collection 3TSSF96C208 Flat Socket Cap Screw 3/8-16

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 3TSSF96C208 is a 3/8-16 UNC flat socket cap screw manufactured from 316 stainless steel. It measures 2.5 inches in length and features an 82-degree flat head driven by a 7/32-inch hex socket key. The 316 stainless steel construction provides superior corrosion resistance compared to standard 304 alloy, making it well suited for wet, marine, or chemically exposed environments. Tradespeople and maintenance professionals use this fastener where a flush or countersunk profile is required and reliable corrosion resistance is critical. Drive engagement is handled with a standard hex key or Allen driver in 7/32-inch size.

This flat socket cap screw is used in industrial, commercial, and mechanical assembly applications where a countersunk seating surface is needed. The 82-degree flat head angle conforms to standard inch-series countersink geometry. It is appropriate for use in structural brackets, equipment enclosures, pump housings, and other assemblies exposed to moisture, saltwater, or mild chemical contact. The UNC thread form provides broad compatibility with standard inch-series tapped holes and nuts. It is sold individually but must be ordered in multiples of 5.

Key Features

• 316 stainless steel construction for high corrosion resistance in marine and chemical environments
• 82-degree flat head profile for flush countersunk installations
• 3/8-16 UNC thread for compatibility with standard inch-series tapped holes
• 2.5-inch length suitable for moderate-depth fastening applications
• 7/32-inch hex socket drive for use with standard Allen or hex key tools
• Minimum order quantity of 5 units

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard inch-series countersunk applications requiring a 3/8-16 UNC thread and an 82-degree flat head seating angle.

Installation Notes

Install using a 7/32-inch hex key or Allen driver. Ensure the mating countersink is machined to an 82-degree angle to achieve proper head seating and flush finish. Apply appropriate torque for the assembly material and fastener grade. In stainless steel fastener applications, use an anti-seize compound to reduce the risk of galling during installation.
