Value Collection MP72052 Hex Socket Cap Screw 8-32 Unc 50 Pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MP72052 is a hex socket cap screw designed for secure, high-strength fastening in mechanical and structural assemblies. Sized at 8-32 UNC with a 1/4 inch length under head, this screw uses a 9/64 inch hex drive for positive torque engagement with a standard hex key or Allen driver. Constructed from alloy steel with a black oxide finish, it delivers solid corrosion resistance in indoor and light-duty environments. This package contains 50 pieces, making it a practical quantity for production runs, maintenance kits, or shop stock. It meets ASME B18.3 and ASTM A574 standards for socket cap screws.

This screw is suited for machine assembly, equipment maintenance, and general industrial fastening applications where a low-profile, high-strength cap screw is required. The 8-32 UNC thread is a common coarse thread size found in light machinery, electrical enclosures, brackets, and fixture components. It is fully threaded along the shank, which maximizes thread engagement in shallow or thin material applications. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and electricians commonly use this fastener in both production and field service settings.

Key Features

• Black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance and reduced light reflection
• Conforms to ASME B18.3 dimensional standard for socket cap screws
• Sold in a 50-piece package for bench stock and production use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 8-32 UNC hex socket cap screw suitable for general machine assembly, electrical enclosures, and mechanical fixture applications requiring a fully threaded alloy steel fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 9/64 inch hex key or Allen driver. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before driving. Do not exceed recommended seating torque for 8-32 alloy steel fasteners as specified by the applicable ASME or equipment manufacturer guidelines. Apply thread-locking compound if vibration resistance is required in the application.
