Value Collection 592495BR Hex Socket Cap Screw 1-8 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 592495BR is a hex socket cap screw designed for high-strength fastening applications across industrial, mechanical, and structural assemblies. This fully threaded fastener features a 1-8 UNC thread size, a 2.5-inch length under head, and a 3/4-inch hex drive socket. Constructed from 18-8 austenitic stainless steel with a bright uncoated finish, it delivers solid corrosion resistance without surface treatment. The cap screw meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F837 standards, making it a reliable choice for applications requiring verified dimensional and mechanical compliance.

This cap screw is suited for use in manufacturing, maintenance, and equipment assembly environments where stainless steel fasteners are required to resist moisture, mild chemicals, or oxidation. The 1-8 UNC coarse thread pattern provides good engagement in standard tapped holes and is commonly found in machine frames, jigs, fixtures, and general mechanical assemblies. It is installed by machinists, millwrights, maintenance technicians, and fabricators working across a wide range of industries.

Key Features

• 1-8 UNC coarse thread for reliable engagement in standard tapped holes
• 2.5 inches length under head for deep fastening applications
• 3/4-inch hex socket drive for high-torque installation with standard hex keys or bit drivers
• Fully threaded shank provides maximum thread engagement along the entire length
• 18-8 austenitic stainless steel (Material Grade A2) offers corrosion resistance without coating
• Meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F837 dimensional and material standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or service fastener for assemblies requiring a 1-8 UNC hex socket cap screw with a 2.5-inch length under head and 3/4-inch drive in stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed using a 3/4-inch hex key or socket bit driver. Verify thread engagement in the mating tapped hole before applying full torque. Stainless steel fasteners are susceptible to galling during installation — use an appropriate anti-seize compound if galling is a concern for the application. De-energize and lock out any equipment before replacing fasteners on powered machinery.
