Value Collection 581184PR Hex Socket Cap Screw 5-44 Unf

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 581184PR is a hex socket cap screw designed for precise fastening applications requiring a compact, high-strength threaded fastener. Threaded 5-44 UNF with a 3/8-inch length under head and fully threaded shank, this screw is driven by a 3/32-inch hex socket key. Constructed from alloy steel with a black oxide finish, it delivers corrosion resistance and surface hardness suitable for demanding mechanical assemblies. Licensed fastener technicians, machinists, and maintenance professionals install this type of screw in equipment where controlled torque and tight thread engagement are required.

This screw is suited for light-duty precision mechanical assemblies, instrument enclosures, and small equipment fabrication where fine-thread engagement is necessary. The 5-44 UNF thread pitch provides higher thread count per inch compared to UNC equivalents, improving holding strength in thinner materials. Sold individually per package with a minimum order quantity of 100 units, making it appropriate for maintenance shops, production facilities, and field service kits that require a consistent stock of small-diameter fasteners.

Key Features

• 5-44 UNF fully threaded shank for fine-thread holding strength in thin or precision materials
• 3/8-inch length under head suits shallow-clearance fastening applications
• Alloy steel construction provides high tensile strength for its size class
• Black oxide finish adds mild corrosion resistance and reduces light reflection
• 3/32-inch hex drive fits standard hex key sets and T-handle drivers
• Meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM A574 fastener standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service stock fastener for precision mechanical assemblies requiring a 5-44 UNF hex socket cap screw with a 3/8-inch length under head.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists, millwrights, or qualified maintenance technicians using a 3/32-inch hex key or socket driver. Always ensure the mating threaded hole is clean and free of debris before driving the screw. Do not exceed rated torque for the 5-44 thread class to avoid stripping the fine threads. Follow applicable ASME standards for fastener installation torque and thread engagement depth.
