Value Collection 872091PR Hex Socket Cap Screw 8-32 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 872091PR is a hex socket cap screw designed for secure, high-strength fastening in mechanical and structural assemblies. It features an 8-32 UNC thread with a 1-1/4 inch length under head and is driven by a 9/64 inch hex key. Constructed from alloy steel with a zinc-plated finish, this fastener offers solid corrosion resistance in standard service environments. The partial threading design provides clamping force appropriate for bolted joint applications where a smooth shank section is required. This screw meets ASME B18.3 and ASTM A574 standards, making it suitable for precision fastening work across industrial, mechanical, and trade applications.

This screw is used in a wide range of light industrial, mechanical, and equipment assembly applications. It is commonly installed in machinery frames, enclosures, HVAC equipment panels, electrical enclosures, and plumbing fixture assemblies where a flush or recessed fastener head is required. The hex socket drive allows for torque application in tight or recessed spaces where a standard hex head wrench cannot fit. Sold in multiples of 100, this fastener is appropriate for contractors and tradespeople who require consistent supply for production or service work.

Key Features

• 8-32 UNC thread for compatibility with standard inch-series tapped holes
• 1-1/4 inch length under head with partial threading for proper joint clamping
• 9/64 inch hex socket drive for use with standard Allen or hex key tools
• Alloy steel construction per ASTM A574 for high tensile strength
• Zinc-plated finish for basic corrosion protection in dry or indoor environments
• Meets ASME B18.3 fastener dimensional standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-stock hex socket cap screw for use in any application requiring an 8-32 UNC partially threaded socket head cap screw with a 1-1/4 inch length under head.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by mechanical, HVAC, electrical, or plumbing technicians using a 9/64 inch hex key or Allen wrench. Power down or de-energize any equipment before servicing fastened assemblies. Ensure the receiving tapped hole is clean and free of debris before threading. Do not overtighten, as alloy steel socket cap screws can strip threads in softer base materials such as aluminum or plastic.
