It features an 82-degree flat head geometry and a 3\/8-inch hex socket drive, accepting a standard Allen-type key. The screw is manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel, which provides corrosion resistance suitable for general industrial, mechanical, and maintenance applications. The thread specification is 5\/16-18 UNC — a coarse unified inch thread — with an overall length of 2 inches. This fastener is installed by maintenance technicians, millwrights, and assembly professionals across light fabrication, equipment repair, and structural panel work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis flat socket cap screw is used wherever a fastener must sit flush with or below the material surface. The 82-degree countersink angle is the standard for inch-series flat head fasteners and mates with standard countersunk holes. It is appropriate for metal-to-metal assemblies, machine guards, enclosures, brackets, and similar applications requiring a smooth exterior surface. The 18-8 stainless steel construction makes it suitable for mildly corrosive or washdown environments. Sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 50 pieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e82-degree flat head profile for flush countersunk installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/8-inch hex socket drive for standard Allen key or hex bit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5\/16-18 UNC coarse thread for broad material compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-inch overall length suitable for moderate-depth fastening applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInch-system dimensions conforming to UNC thread standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard inch-series flat socket cap screw compatible with countersunk holes machined to the 82-degree included angle standard, accepting 5\/16-18 UNC threaded holes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation requires a 3\/8-inch hex key or Allen-type bit driver. Ensure the mating hole is countersunk to 82 degrees before driving the fastener to achieve proper flush seating. Torque fastener to values appropriate for 5\/16-18 stainless steel hardware per applicable mechanical or structural specifications — do not over-torque, as 18-8 stainless steel is susceptible to galling. Apply an anti-galling lubricant such as a nickel-based compound when torquing stainless fasteners to reduce the risk of thread seizure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16-18\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC (Unified Coarse, Inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: 82 Degree Flat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex Socket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18-8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSystem of Measurement\u003c\/strong\u003e: Inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Package Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Order Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 50\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 63872\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51703925178674,"sku":"63872","price":58.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/c8621b5e57041078f9bedbc2e47b655e.jpg?v=1788419490","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-63872-flat-socket-cap-screw-5-16-18x2-ss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
