Value Collection 592035PR Hex Socket Cap Screw 2-64 Unf

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 592035PR is a hex socket cap screw designed for applications requiring a compact, high-strength fastener in a small form factor. The screw features a 2-64 UNF thread and measures 3/16 inches under the head with full threading along its entire length. Driven with a 5/64 inch hex key, it is constructed from 18-8 austenitic stainless steel, meeting both ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F837 standards. This combination of corrosion resistance and precise threading makes it well-suited for mechanical assemblies, instrumentation, and close-tolerance fastening tasks across trade and industrial environments.

This screw is used in applications where a low-profile socket head and fine unified thread are required. The 2-64 UNF designation indicates a fine-thread pitch suited to thin materials, small tapped holes, or assemblies that require controlled clamping force with minimal fastener bulk. Typical installations include precision equipment, electrical enclosures, panel hardware, and light mechanical fixtures. The stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet, humid, or mildly chemical environments, making it appropriate for both indoor and outdoor service conditions.

Key Features

• 2-64 UNF fine thread for controlled engagement in small or thin tapped holes
• Fully threaded shank provides maximum thread engagement along the entire 3/16 inch length
• 5/64 inch hex socket drive for use with standard Allen or hex key wrenches
• 18-8 austenitic stainless steel (Grade A2) for corrosion resistance and durability
• Meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F837 fastener standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard hex socket cap screw for use in any application requiring a 2-64 UNF threaded fastener with a 3/16 inch length under head and a 5/64 inch hex drive.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic, technician, or tradesperson familiar with fine-thread fastener practices. Use a calibrated 5/64 inch hex key or ball-end driver to seat the screw without cam-out or socket rounding. Do not exceed the fastener's rated torque range for the 18-8 stainless material grade and thread size, and avoid using power tools at high speed on fine-thread fasteners to prevent thread stripping or galling. Ensure the mating tapped hole is clean and free of debris before installation.
