Value Collection 88546429 Button Socket Cap Screw 10-32

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 88546429 is a button socket cap screw designed for applications requiring a low-profile fastener with a smooth, rounded head. Sized at 10-32 x 5/8 inch, it features a 1/8-inch hex socket drive and is manufactured from alloy steel with a black oxide finish. The black oxide coating provides mild corrosion resistance and reduces light reflection, making it a common choice in machinery, fixtures, and enclosures. Hardness is rated at 36-43 HRC, meeting the demands of high-stress fastening applications. This screw conforms to ANSI/ASME B18.3 standards. Sold in a pack of 25.

This button socket cap screw suits a wide range of industrial, mechanical, and fabrication applications where a flush or near-flush head profile is needed and clearance is limited. Typical uses include machine guards, panels, brackets, and light structural assemblies. The UNF thread standard and 3A thread fit class ensure precise engagement with compatible tapped holes. Installers across manufacturing, maintenance, and general mechanical trades use this fastener in both production and repair scenarios.
