Value Collection 701081PR Button Socket Cap Screw 8-32

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 701081PR is a button socket cap screw designed for applications requiring a low-profile fastening solution with high mechanical strength. This screw features a 8-32 UNC thread with a 1-1/4 inch length under the head, a 3/32 inch hex socket drive, and a button-style head. Constructed from alloy steel with a black oxide coating, it delivers corrosion resistance and a matte dark finish suited to industrial and mechanical assemblies. The 3A thread fit class ensures precise engagement, and the 36-43 HRC hardness rating meets ANSI/ASME B18.3 and ASTM F835 standards. Fully threaded along its length, this fastener is installed by licensed mechanics, maintenance technicians, and assemblers across a range of industries.

This button socket cap screw is used in light to medium-duty mechanical assemblies where a low-profile head is preferred over a standard socket cap profile. Typical applications include machine guards, access panels, brackets, and enclosures where the rounded button head reduces snag points and improves the finished appearance of the assembly. The black oxide finish makes it a common choice in tooling fixtures and precision mechanical builds. This screw is sold individually but requires a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces.

Key Features

• Black oxide coating provides mild corrosion resistance and a matte finish
• Meets ANSI/ASME B18.3 and ASTM F835 fastener standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-fit fastener for assemblies requiring an 8-32 UNC button socket cap screw conforming to ANSI/ASME B18.3 and ASTM F835 specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed using a 3/32 inch hex key or Allen driver. Always ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before installation. Do not exceed the torque capacity of the fastener or use an impact driver, as this may damage the hex socket or exceed the thread fit tolerance. Follow applicable mechanical assembly codes and torque guidelines for 8-32 fasteners as specified by the equipment manufacturer.
