Value Collection 592046PR Hex Socket Cap Screw 1-64 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 592046PR is a hex socket cap screw designed for precision fastening in applications requiring a compact, low-profile drive interface. Featuring a 1-64 UNC thread and a 5/16-inch length under head, this screw is fully threaded from bearing surface to tip, making it suitable for through-hole and tapped blind-hole installations. Machined from 18-8 austenitic stainless steel (Material Grade A2), it delivers corrosion resistance appropriate for general industrial, mechanical, and instrumentation environments. The 1/16-inch hex drive accepts a standard hex key or Allen-style driver. This fastener is commonly installed by mechanical assemblers, maintenance technicians, and precision equipment builders.

This screw is well suited for light-duty clamping and assembly work where space constraints prevent the use of larger-head fasteners. The fine 1-64 UNC thread pitch provides strong clamping force relative to the screw diameter, making it a practical choice for securing small machine components, covers, brackets, and sub-assemblies in both residential equipment and commercial instrumentation contexts. Sold individually, with a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per order.

Key Features

• 1-64 UNC thread for fine-pitch engagement in tapped holes
• 5/16-inch length under head, fully threaded for maximum thread engagement
• 1/16-inch internal hex (Allen) drive for use in tight clearance areas
• 18-8 austenitic stainless steel construction, Material Grade A2, for corrosion resistance
• Meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F837 fastener standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or maintenance-stock hex socket cap screw for equipment requiring 1-64 UNC threaded fasteners with a hex socket drive.

Installation Notes

Install using a properly sized 1/16-inch hex key to avoid stripping the socket. Ensure the tapped hole is clean and free of debris before threading. Do not over-torque; small-diameter stainless fasteners are susceptible to galling and thread seizure. Anti-seize compound may be appropriate for stainless-to-stainless applications.
