Value Collection 721272BR Flat Socket Cap Screw 5/8-11 X 6 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 721272BR is a flat socket cap screw designed for recessed fastening applications where a flush or countersunk finish is required. It features an 82-degree flat head driven by a 3/8-inch hex socket, making it compatible with standard Allen-type tooling. Manufactured from alloy steel with a black oxide finish, the screw offers solid mechanical strength and moderate corrosion resistance in sheltered environments. At 6 inches in overall length with a 5/8-11 UNC thread, it is partially threaded, which helps maintain clamping force in thick-material assemblies. Meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F835 standards.

This screw is suited for mechanical assemblies, machine bases, jigs, fixtures, and structural connections where a flush head profile is necessary to avoid interference with mating components. The partially threaded shank provides a shoulder section useful in applications requiring precise alignment or shear loading. Typically installed by machinists, millwrights, or maintenance mechanics working on industrial or heavy-duty mechanical equipment.

Key Features

• 82-degree flat head provides a fully countersunk, flush-mount profile
• 3/8-inch hex socket drive for standard Allen wrench or hex bit tooling
• 5/8-11 UNC thread for broad compatibility with standard tapped holes
• Partially threaded shank supports shear loads and alignment in thick sections
• Alloy steel construction with black oxide finish for strength and surface protection
• Meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F835 fastener standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series flat socket cap screw for use in any application requiring a 5/8-11 UNC tapped hole and a countersunk 82-degree seat.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists or maintenance mechanics using a 3/8-inch hex key or bit driver. Ensure the mating hole is properly countersunk to an 82-degree included angle before installation. Degrease mating surfaces and apply thread lubricant or thread-locking compound as required by the application. Always torque fasteners in accordance with the project specification or applicable engineering standard for the material and joint type.
