Value Collection 701193PR Button Socket Cap Screw 3/8-24

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 701193PR is a fully threaded button socket cap screw designed for applications requiring a low-profile head with high clamping strength. Sized at 3/8-24 (UNF) with a 3-inch length under the head, it is driven by a 7/32-inch hex socket. Manufactured from alloy steel with a black oxide finish, this fastener meets ANSI/ASME B18.3 and ASTM F835 standards. The hardness range of 36-43 HRC and a 3A thread fit class make it suitable for precision mechanical assemblies where consistent torque and thread engagement are critical.

This screw is used across a wide range of industrial and mechanical applications including machine guarding, equipment frames, jigs, fixtures, and structural assemblies where a flush or low-profile fastener head is required. The fine 3/8-24 UNF thread pitch provides higher tensile strength and greater resistance to vibration-induced loosening compared to coarse thread equivalents. It is commonly installed by machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians working on fabrication or equipment assembly projects.

Key Features

• Fully threaded 3/8-24 UNF right-hand thread for consistent engagement along the full fastener length
• Button head profile reduces protrusion above mating surfaces for low-clearance assemblies
• 7/32-inch hex socket drive for use with standard hex keys or socket drivers
• Alloy steel construction with 36-43 HRC hardness for high tensile and shear load capacity
• Black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance and reduces light reflection in exposed assemblies
• Meets ANSI/ASME B18.3 and ASTM F835 standards for dimensional and mechanical conformance

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 3/8-24 UNF button socket cap screw conforming to ANSI/ASME B18.3 and ASTM F835, suitable for use in any application that calls out this thread size, head type, and fastener standard.

Installation Notes

Install using a calibrated hex key or socket driver sized at 7/32 inch. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before installation. Apply thread-locking compound where vibration may be a concern. Follow applicable torque specifications from the equipment manufacturer or a recognized fastener torque reference for 3/8-24 alloy steel fasteners.
