Value Collection 88547690 Flat Socket Cap Screw 10-32 X 1 in 50pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 88547690 is a flat socket cap screw designed for applications requiring a flush or countersunk fastener profile. Featuring a 1/8-inch hex socket drive, this screw accepts a standard hex key for installation in tight clearance areas. It is manufactured from alloy steel with a black oxide finish that provides mild corrosion resistance and a low-reflectance appearance. The 10-32 UNF thread standard ensures compatibility with fine-thread tapped holes common in precision assemblies. At 1 inch overall length, it suits a wide range of panel, fixture, and equipment fastening tasks encountered by maintenance technicians and mechanical tradespeople.

Flat socket cap screws are used where a fastener head must sit flush with or below the surface of the workpiece. Typical applications include machine frames, electrical enclosures, HVAC equipment panels, mounting brackets, and structural assemblies where a protruding head would interfere with clearance or aesthetics. The 10-32 thread size is commonly found in light-duty mechanical and electrical equipment. This screw is sold in packages of 50, making it practical for service shops, contractors, and tradespeople who need shelf stock for recurring repair and assembly work.

Key Features

• Flat head profile seats flush in countersunk holes, eliminating head protrusion
• 1/8-inch hex socket drive compatible with standard hex keys and ball-end drivers
• 10-32 UNF fine thread for strong engagement in tapped metal assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series flat socket cap screw for use in any application with a countersunk 10-32 UNF tapped hole requiring a 1-inch overall length fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 1/8-inch hex key or hex socket driver. Ensure the mating hole is properly countersunk to the correct angle to allow full flush seating of the flat head. De-energize or shut down any equipment before fastener replacement to prevent injury. Follow applicable mechanical assembly codes and torque guidelines for the specific alloy steel grade being used in the assembly.
