Value Collection 837079PR Hex Socket Cap Screw 8-32 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 837079PR is a hex socket cap screw designed for secure mechanical fastening in assemblies that require a recessed-drive, low-profile head configuration. Sized at 8-32 UNC with a 3/8-inch length under head and a 9/64-inch hex drive, this screw is fully threaded along its entire shank length. Constructed from alloy steel with a zinc-plated finish, it offers solid tensile strength and basic corrosion resistance suitable for general industrial and mechanical applications. It is installed using a standard hex key or Allen driver. This fastener meets ASTM B695 standards for coating.

This cap screw is suited for light mechanical assemblies, panel fabrication, equipment enclosures, and machine component mounting where a flush or near-flush fastener seating is required. The 8-32 UNC thread pitch is a common fine-coarse hybrid widely used in precision mechanical and light-duty structural connections. The zinc-plated alloy steel construction makes it appropriate for indoor and protected environments. Sold individually; minimum order quantity is 100 pieces per order.

Key Features

• 8-32 UNC thread size for broad compatibility with standard tapped holes
• 3/8-inch length under head provides secure engagement in shallow material thicknesses
• 9/64-inch hex socket drive for use with standard Allen or hex key tools
• Fully threaded shank maximizes thread engagement along the entire length
• Alloy steel construction delivers high tensile strength for mechanical fastening
• Zinc-plated finish meets ASTM B695 for coating uniformity and basic corrosion protection

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 8-32 UNC hex socket cap screw for use in any tapped hole or threaded insert conforming to 8-32 UNC thread specifications in mechanical, industrial, or light structural assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed using a 9/64-inch hex key or Allen driver; confirm the mating tapped hole is clean and free of debris before driving. De-energize or lock out any equipment before fastener removal or replacement in powered assemblies. Do not overtighten, as alloy steel screws at this diameter can be sensitive to torque overload in soft or thin base materials. Follow applicable fastener torque guidelines from the equipment manufacturer or relevant mechanical codes.
