Value Collection 88546452 Button Socket Cap Screw 50 Pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 88546452 is a button socket cap screw designed for applications requiring a low-profile fastener head with reliable clamping strength. It features a 10-24 UNC thread, a 1/4 inch length under head, and a 1/8 inch hex socket drive. Manufactured from alloy steel with a black oxide finish, this screw meets ANSI/ASME B18.3 standards. The hardness range of 36 to 43 HRC provides strong resistance to stripping and wear. Black oxide coating offers mild corrosion resistance and reduces light reflection, making it a common choice in mechanical assemblies and enclosures. Sold in a pack of 50 with a minimum order quantity of 1 pack.

Button socket cap screws like the 88546452 are used across a wide range of light industrial, mechanical, and equipment assembly applications. The low-profile button head sits flush against mating surfaces, making it well suited for panels, guards, covers, and other components where head clearance is limited. This screw is installed by machinists, millwrights, equipment technicians, and maintenance professionals working with metal fabrications, machinery enclosures, and precision assemblies where a standard hex cap screw head would interfere with adjacent parts.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard ANSI/ASME B18.3 button socket cap screw for use in any application accepting a 10-24 UNC thread fastener with a button head profile.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 1/8 inch hex key or Allen-type driver. Verify that the mating thread is clean and free of debris before driving the screw to avoid cross-threading. Follow applicable torque guidelines for 10-24 alloy steel fasteners per your assembly specification. Do not exceed the rated hardness or apply impact tools that may shear the button head socket.
