Sized at 3\/8-16 UNC with a 3-inch length under head, this fastener is driven by a 7\/32-inch hex socket. The alloy steel construction is finished in black oxide, which provides mild corrosion resistance and reduces light reflection. The 3A thread fit class ensures precise engagement. Hardness is rated at 36 to 43 HRC, meeting ANSI\/ASME B18.3 and ASTM F835 standards. Each package contains 10 screws.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis button socket cap screw is suited for machine assembly, equipment fabrication, and fixture building where a rounded, flush-style head is preferred over a standard hex head or flat-head fastener. The low-profile button head reduces snag points in tight clearance areas. It is commonly installed in metalworking, industrial equipment, and general mechanical assemblies by machinists, millwrights, fabricators, and maintenance technicians.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFully threaded 3\/8-16 UNC right-hand thread for standard nut and tapped-hole compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-inch length under head provides ample grip range for thick material stacks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e7\/32-inch hex socket drive for use with standard Allen wrenches and hex bit drivers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlloy steel construction rated 36 to 43 HRC hardness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack oxide finish for mild corrosion resistance and low-glare appearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets ANSI\/ASME B18.3 and ASTM F835 fastener standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard UNC 3\/8-16 button socket cap screw compatible with any tapped hole or nut conforming to 3\/8-16 UNC thread specifications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation requires a 7\/32-inch hex key or Allen bit driver. Always verify the tapped hole or mating nut matches the 3\/8-16 UNC thread standard before driving. Use a calibrated torque wrench appropriate to the joint material and application; do not rely on impact drivers for final torque on precision assemblies. Follow applicable ANSI\/ASME fastener torque guidelines for alloy steel cap screws in the relevant diameter and grade class.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8-16\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Under Head\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex Socket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/32 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Button\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1990 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Fit Class\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Alloy Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 36-43 HRC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFastener Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI\/ASME B18.3, ASTM F835\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: A997072\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51696947757362,"sku":"A997072","price":28.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/0fc12c17d51c9395f550426bb749b05f.jpg?v=1788347862","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-a997072-button-cap-screw-3-8-16-3in-10pk","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
