Value Collection 592239PR Hex Socket Cap Screw 12-24 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 592239PR is a hex socket cap screw designed for secure mechanical fastening in applications requiring a recessed drive interface. This fastener features a 12-24 UNC thread size, a 5/32 inch hex drive, and a 5/8 inch length under head with full threading from tip to head. Constructed from 18-8 austenitic stainless steel (Grade A2), it offers solid corrosion resistance in moderate-exposure environments. The bright, uncoated finish maintains dimensional accuracy and allows for consistent torque application. It meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F837 standards, making it appropriate for precision mechanical assemblies and structural fastening tasks.

This cap screw is suited for use in light mechanical assemblies, HVAC equipment enclosures, plumbing fixtures, electrical panel hardware, and general trade applications where a low-profile, high-strength socket drive fastener is required. The fully threaded shank provides maximum thread engagement across the full grip length, which is particularly useful in thin-material or close-tolerance applications. This fastener is commonly installed by HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and mechanical contractors working on equipment frames, brackets, and component mounting.

Key Features

• 12-24 UNC thread size with full threading for maximum engagement
• 5/32 inch hex socket drive for use with standard Allen or hex key tools
• 5/8 inch length under head suits thin-material and close-tolerance assemblies
• 18-8 austenitic stainless steel (Grade A2) construction for corrosion resistance
• Bright, uncoated finish maintains precise dimensions and consistent torque behavior
• Meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F837 fastener standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or general-use hex socket cap screw for mechanical assemblies requiring a 12-24 UNC fully threaded fastener with a 5/32 inch hex drive.

Installation Notes

Install using a 5/32 inch hex key or Allen wrench. Ensure mating threaded holes are clean and free of debris before driving. Power down or de-energize any equipment before servicing panels or enclosures where this fastener is used. Do not overtighten stainless steel fasteners into stainless threads without anti-galling compound, as galling can occur.
