It features an 82-degree flat head profile with a 3\/16-inch hex socket drive. The overall length is 3-1\/2 inches. This fastener is used in mechanical assemblies, structural connections, and equipment fabrication where a flush-mounted, corrosion-resistant fastener is required. Installation is performed by machinists, millwrights, maintenance technicians, and fabricators working with stainless hardware in corrosive or marine-adjacent environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis flat socket cap screw is suited for applications requiring a countersunk, flush-seating head in metal or composite substrates. The 316 stainless steel alloy provides superior resistance to chlorides and oxidizing agents compared to 304-grade material, making it appropriate for marine, food-processing, chemical, and outdoor industrial installations. The UNC thread standard ensures broad compatibility with standard inch-system tapped holes and nuts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e82-degree flat head seats flush in standard countersunk holes for a clean, low-profile installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/16-inch hex socket drive accepts standard Allen keys and hex bit drivers\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e316 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in chloride-heavy and outdoor environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/16-18 UNC thread provides strong clamping force in inch-standard tapped holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-1\/2-inch overall length accommodates deeper material stacks requiring extended engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMinimum order quantity of 5 units supports small-batch repair and fabrication needs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an inch-standard UNC fastener for use in any application requiring a 5\/16-18 flat socket cap screw with an 82-degree countersink angle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstall using a calibrated 3\/16-inch hex key or hex bit driver to ensure proper torque transfer without rounding the socket. Countersink the mating hole to an 82-degree included angle for full head seating. Apply an appropriate anti-seize compound when installing 316 stainless fasteners into stainless threaded holes to prevent galling. Inspect threads and seating surface before installation to confirm no damage that could affect clamping performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16-18 UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: 82-degree Flat\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: 3\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: 316\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSystem of Measurement\u003c\/strong\u003e: Inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0066 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: C32424844\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51721710141746,"sku":"C32424844","price":3213.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/feada04e551195e71f01ed3fe4280fea_7abd3fc1-d6ca-4c4a-bcf0-9446ca962306.jpg?v=1788579721","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-c32424844-flat-socket-cap-screw-5-16-18","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
