Value Collection MP63856 Flat Socket Cap Screw 1/4-20

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MP63856 is a flat socket cap screw designed for applications requiring a flush or countersunk fastener profile. Sized at 1/4-20 UNC thread with an overall length of 1/2 inch, it features an 82-degree flat head and a 5/32-inch hex socket drive. The fastener is manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel, providing corrosion resistance suitable for both indoor and outdoor environments. It is used across mechanical assembly, equipment fabrication, and maintenance work where a low-profile head is required and standard cap screws would protrude above the surface.

This screw is well-suited for light mechanical and structural fastening tasks in trade and industrial settings. Common applications include mounting panels, brackets, and fixtures where the fastener head must sit flush with or below the mating surface. The 1/4-20 UNC thread pitch is a widely used standard size compatible with tapped holes, threaded inserts, and standard nuts found throughout HVAC equipment, electrical enclosures, plumbing fixtures, and general fabrication work. A minimum order quantity of 50 pieces applies.

Key Features

• 82-degree flat head seats flush in standard countersunk holes
• 5/32-inch hex socket drive for Allen key or hex bit installation
• 18-8 stainless steel construction resists corrosion and oxidation
• 1/4-20 UNC thread standard ensures broad compatibility with tapped components
• 1/2-inch overall length suits shallow countersunk fastening applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-thread replacement or assembly fastener for any application using 1/4-20 UNC tapped holes or standard hex nuts requiring a flush-mount flat head profile.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed using a 5/32-inch hex key or hex socket bit. Ensure the receiving hole is properly countersunk to 82 degrees to achieve full head seating. Torque to the value specified by the equipment manufacturer or applicable assembly standard. De-energize any electrical equipment and depressurize any plumbing or HVAC systems before performing fastener service in those assemblies.
