Value Collection 88546460 Button Socket Cap Screw 10-24

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 88546460 is a button socket cap screw designed for mechanical assemblies requiring a low-profile head and high clamping strength. Sized at 10-24 UNC with a 3/8-inch length under head, each screw is machined from alloy steel and finished with a black oxide coating for corrosion resistance and a clean appearance. The 1/8-inch hex socket drive allows precise torque application in confined spaces. Hardness is rated at 36-43 HRC, making these fasteners suitable for demanding structural and mechanical applications. These screws are sold in packages of 50 with a minimum order quantity of 1 package.

These button socket cap screws are used in machine tool, fixture, jig, enclosure, and general mechanical assembly work where a flush or near-flush fastener profile is required. The black oxide finish makes them common in applications where light corrosion resistance and reduced light reflection are priorities. Typical installers include machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians working in industrial, commercial, and manufacturing environments.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as a standard UNC button socket cap screw suitable for tapped holes sized for 10-24 thread applications in general mechanical and industrial assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a 1/8-inch hex key or socket driver. Ensure the mating tapped hole is clean and free of debris before driving the screw. Verify thread engagement is sufficient for the load requirements of the assembly before final tightening. Always select fasteners rated for the load, vibration, and environmental conditions of the specific application.
