Value Collection 721225PS Flat Socket Cap Screw 7/16-14

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 721225PS is a flat socket cap screw designed for countersunk fastening applications in structural and mechanical assemblies. It features an 82-degree flat head with a 1/4-inch hex socket drive, allowing flush or below-surface seating in countersunk holes. The fastener measures 7/16-14 UNC thread by 2-1/2 inches overall length and is partially threaded. Manufactured from alloy steel with a black oxide finish, it offers good strength and moderate corrosion resistance. Licensed trades and industrial maintenance technicians install this type of fastener in equipment frames, fixtures, and assemblies where a low-profile head is required.

This flat socket cap screw is suited for use in general industrial, MRO, and mechanical assembly applications. The 7/16-14 UNC thread is a common inch-series size found in machinery, tooling fixtures, steel fabrication, and equipment enclosures. The partial thread shank provides grip length for thicker joint stacks and helps resist loosening under vibration loads. It is sold individually but requires a minimum order of 10 pieces per purchase.

Key Features

• 82-degree flat head profile seats flush in standard countersunk holes
• 1/4-inch hex socket drive for use with standard hex keys or socket drivers
• 7/16-14 UNC thread — common inch-series coarse thread for broad hardware compatibility
• Partially threaded shank for improved grip in thicker material stacks
• Alloy steel construction provides high tensile strength for demanding mechanical applications
• Black oxide finish reduces surface reflectivity and provides mild corrosion resistance

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series flat socket cap screw conforming to ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F835, suitable for use in any application requiring a 7/16-14 UNC countersunk socket screw.

Installation Notes

Install using a properly sized 1/4-inch hex key or T-handle driver; a worn or undersized key may strip the socket. Ensure the mating countersink is machined to the correct 82-degree angle before installation. Torque to the value specified by the joint designer or applicable engineering standard for the alloy steel grade in use. Always confirm thread engagement depth meets the requirements of the fastener standard before applying full load.
