Value Collection 837043PR Hex Socket Cap Screw 5-40 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 837043PR is a hex socket cap screw designed for precision fastening applications requiring a compact drive profile. Sized at 5-40 UNC with a 1/4 inch length under head, this fastener is fully threaded and driven by a 3/32 inch hex key. It is manufactured from alloy steel with a zinc-plated finish to provide corrosion resistance in light-duty and general-purpose mechanical assemblies. This screw is suited for electricians, mechanical technicians, and maintenance professionals working on equipment panels, brackets, and assemblies where a low-profile socket-drive fastener is required.

This fastener is used in residential and commercial maintenance, light manufacturing, and equipment assembly applications. The 5-40 UNC thread designation makes it appropriate for use in tapped holes in metal panels, small machine components, and precision instrument housings. The zinc coating meets ASTM B695 standards, making it suitable for environments with moderate exposure to moisture and mild corrosion risk. Minimum order quantity is 100 pieces per order, sold as a package quantity of 1.

Key Features

• 5-40 UNC thread size for use in standard tapped holes
• 1/4 inch length under head for shallow through or blind-hole applications
• Fully threaded shank for maximum thread engagement
• 3/32 inch hex drive for use with standard hex keys or Allen wrenches
• Alloy steel construction for tensile strength in mechanical fastening
• Zinc-plated finish meets ASTM B695 for corrosion resistance

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 5-40 UNC hex socket cap screw for general mechanical assembly, equipment maintenance, and light manufacturing applications requiring a fully threaded alloy steel fastener with a 3/32 inch hex drive.

Installation Notes

Install using a 3/32 inch hex key or Allen driver. Ensure the mating tapped hole is clean and correctly sized for 5-40 UNC thread engagement before installation. Do not exceed the rated torque range for the 5-40 thread size and alloy steel grade as specified by applicable mechanical standards. Power down or de-energize any equipment before accessing fastener locations on live panels or electrical enclosures.
