Value Collection 721087PR Flat Socket Cap Screw 6-32

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 721087PR is a flat socket cap screw designed for applications requiring a low-profile, flush-seating fastener in metal assemblies and structural components. It measures 3 inches in overall length with a 6-32 UNC thread size and features a hex socket drive accepting a 5/64 inch key. The 82-degree flat head seats flush with or below the mating surface when installed into a countersunk hole. Constructed from alloy steel with a black oxide finish, this screw delivers solid mechanical strength with moderate corrosion resistance in dry or lightly oiled environments. Partially threaded shank length provides clamping force without full-length thread engagement.

This screw is suited for light machine assemblies, electronics enclosures, instrumentation panels, and general fabrication work where a recessed head is required to maintain a flush surface. The 6-32 UNC thread is a common machine screw size found in sheet metal frames, panel hardware, and precision mechanical assemblies. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and fabricators working in industrial or commercial settings will encounter this fastener in standard machine screw applications. It conforms to ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F835 standards, making it appropriate for specified fastener callouts in engineering drawings.

Key Features

• 82-degree flat head profile seats flush in standard countersunk holes
• Hex socket drive (5/64 inch) for torque application in tight clearance areas
• 6-32 UNC thread — a widely used machine screw standard
• Partially threaded shank for improved clamping in through-bolt applications
• Alloy steel construction for mechanical strength in fastener-grade applications
• Black oxide finish for appearance and mild corrosion resistance in dry service
• Meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F835 fastener standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-stock machine screw for any application specifying a 6-32 UNC flat socket cap screw per ASME/ANSI B18.3 or ASTM F835.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a 5/64 inch hex key or Allen driver. The mating hole must be countersunk to 82 degrees for proper flush seating — do not install in a straight-wall clearance hole. Power down any energized equipment before fastener service on electrical or mechanical assemblies. Apply appropriate thread lubricant or thread-locking compound per the assembly specification when required.
