Value Collection 88546411 Button Socket Cap Screw 25 Pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 88546411 is a button socket cap screw designed for fastening applications where a low-profile head is required. Sized at 10-32 x 1/2 inch, this screw features a 1/8-inch hex socket drive and is manufactured from alloy steel with a black oxide finish. The black oxide coating provides moderate corrosion resistance and reduces light glare in visible assemblies. Hardness is rated at 36 to 43 HRC, making this fastener suitable for medium-strength clamping loads. Thread fit is Class 3A per ANSI/ASME B18.3, ensuring a controlled tolerance for consistent engagement. Sold in a pack of 25.

This screw is commonly used in machine assembly, equipment fabrication, and panel mounting where a button-head profile is preferred over a standard hex cap screw. The UNF thread form suits applications requiring fine-thread engagement and greater pullout resistance in thin or threaded-insert materials. Typical users include machinists, millwrights, maintenance technicians, and mechanical assemblers working on light-duty to medium-duty metalwork.

Key Features

• Low-profile button head reduces interference in tight clearance assemblies
• 1/8-inch hex socket drive for use with standard Allen keys or hex bit drivers
• Alloy steel construction rated 36 to 43 HRC for reliable medium-strength fastening
• Black oxide finish for mild corrosion resistance and reduced reflectivity
• Class 3A UNF thread fit conforms to ANSI/ASME B18.3 standards
• Packed in quantities of 25 for bench stock and production use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 10-32 UNF button socket cap screw conforming to ANSI/ASME B18.3, suitable for use in any application requiring a right-hand, fine-thread fastener in that size range.

Installation Notes

Install using a 1/8-inch hex key or hex socket bit driver. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before engagement. Apply appropriate thread-locking compound or torque to specification per the governing assembly standard for the application. Alloy steel fasteners with black oxide finish are not rated for outdoor or high-humidity exposure without additional corrosion protection.
