Value Collection 701087PR Button Socket Cap Screw 8-36

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 701087PR is a button socket cap screw designed for applications requiring a low-profile head and a secure hex socket drive. Manufactured from alloy steel with a black oxide finish, this fastener delivers corrosion resistance and a clean appearance suitable for mechanical assemblies, machine components, and equipment housings. The 8-36 UNF thread and 3/8-inch length under head make it a precise-fit choice for fine-thread applications where standard coarse-thread fasteners are not appropriate. It conforms to ANSI/ASME B18.3 and ASTM F835 standards and carries a hardness rating of 36-43 HRC, appropriate for demanding structural and load-bearing connections.

This screw is suited for light to medium-duty mechanical assemblies in both shop and field environments. The fine 8-36 UNF thread pitch provides improved thread engagement and vibration resistance compared to coarse-thread equivalents. The button head profile keeps the fastener below or flush with surrounding surfaces, making it practical for panels, guards, and enclosures where clearance is limited. Installation requires a 3/32-inch hex key or hex bit driver. This fastener is ordered in multiples of 100 units.

Key Features

• Alloy steel construction with 36-43 HRC hardness for high clamping strength
• Black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance and low-reflectance appearance
• Button head profile with 3/32-inch hex socket drive for low-clearance installations
• 8-36 UNF right-hand thread with Class 3A thread fit for tight tolerance engagement
• Fully threaded along the 3/8-inch length under head
• Conforms to ANSI/ASME B18.3 and ASTM F835 standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard fastener for mechanical assemblies requiring an 8-36 UNF button socket cap screw in alloy steel with black oxide finish, conforming to ANSI/ASME B18.3 and ASTM F835.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a 3/32-inch hex key or hex socket bit driver. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before installation. Apply appropriate thread preload per the assembly specification; do not over-torque, as button head screws have lower drive torque limits than standard socket head cap screws. De-energize and lock out any equipment before fastener service in electrical or mechanical enclosures.
