Value Collection 95662 Flat Socket Cap Screw 1/4-20 316 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 95662 is a flat socket cap screw designed for applications requiring a flush or countersunk fastener profile. The 82-degree flat head seats fully into a countersunk hole, eliminating protrusion above the mating surface. Driven by a 5/32-inch hex socket key, the fastener delivers reliable torque transfer without external wrenching clearance. Manufactured from 316 stainless steel, it offers strong resistance to corrosion and oxidation in wet, chemical, or marine environments. The 1/4-20 UNC thread pattern and 1/2-inch overall length make this screw a standard choice for light structural and mechanical assemblies in corrosive service conditions.

This screw is suited for use in HVAC equipment panels, plumbing fixtures, pool equipment enclosures, and marine-grade assemblies where surface-flush fastening is required. The 316 stainless steel grade performs well in chlorinated and saltwater environments, making it a common choice for pool and spa hardware, chemical processing equipment, and coastal installations. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and field service pros use this fastener when countersunk mounting holes are already present in the workpiece.

Key Features

• 82-degree flat head seats flush in standard countersunk holes, eliminating surface protrusion
• 5/32-inch hex socket drive allows installation in tight clearances without external wrench access
• 316 stainless steel construction provides superior corrosion resistance in wet and chemical environments
• 1/4-20 UNC thread standard ensures broad compatibility with tapped holes and standard hex nuts
• 1/2-inch overall length suits light-duty panel, bracket, and equipment enclosure fastening

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-stock fastener for any application requiring a 1/4-20 UNC flat socket cap screw with an 82-degree head angle and 5/32-inch hex socket drive.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 5/32-inch hex key or Allen driver; use a T-handle or L-key for adequate torque in harder materials. Ensure the mating countersink is machined to an 82-degree included angle for proper head seating. Power down or de-energize any equipment before replacing fasteners on live panels or enclosures. Follow applicable mechanical codes and equipment manufacturer guidelines for fastener torque and thread engagement depth.
