Value Collection 63880 Flat Socket Cap Screw 3/8-16 X 2 in Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 63880 is a flat socket cap screw designed for flush or countersunk fastening applications where a low-profile head is required. The 82-degree flat head seats fully into a countersunk hole, keeping the fastened surface clear of protrusions. Manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel, the fastener provides solid corrosion resistance in wet, humid, or mildly chemical environments. The hex socket drive accepts a 7/32-inch hex key, allowing high installation torque in confined spaces where a wrench or standard screwdriver would not fit. Thread size is 3/8-16 UNC with an overall length of 2 inches.

This screw is suited for light structural, mechanical, and equipment assembly tasks across HVAC, plumbing, electrical panel, and general mechanical trade work. The UNC thread pattern engages standard tapped holes and threaded inserts widely found in equipment frames, brackets, covers, and enclosures. The 18-8 stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for indoor and outdoor installations where mild corrosion resistance is needed without the cost of a higher-grade alloy. Minimum order quantity is 50 pieces per order.

Key Features

• 82-degree flat head countersinks flush with the mating surface for a clean, low-profile finish
• 7/32-inch hex socket drive delivers high torque transfer in tight access areas
• 18-8 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet and humid service environments
• 3/8-16 UNC thread engages standard tapped holes and threaded inserts
• Overall length of 2 inches suits medium-depth fastening applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard UNC inch-series flat socket cap screw suitable for equipment frames, enclosures, brackets, and mechanical assemblies that require a countersunk fastener with a 3/8-16 thread.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a 7/32-inch hex key or Allen driver. The mating hole must be countersunk to 82 degrees to seat the flat head flush. De-energize or shut off equipment before fastening into any panel or live enclosure. Stainless fasteners can be prone to galling during installation — apply an appropriate anti-seize compound and drive at low speed to reduce the risk of thread seizure.
