Value Collection MSC-67562009 Button Socket Cap Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSC-67562009 is a 6-32 x 3/8 inch button socket cap screw manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish. It features a low-profile button head and a 5/64 inch hex socket drive, making it a go-to fastener where clearance is tight and a flush or near-flush appearance is required. The fully threaded shank runs the full 3/8 inch length under the head, providing consistent thread engagement throughout. This screw meets ANSI/ASME B18.3 and ASTM F837 standards, making it suitable for assemblies where fastener traceability and dimensional compliance matter.

This button socket cap screw is used in light-duty mechanical and electrical assemblies, panels, enclosures, and equipment housings where a standard hex cap screw head would interfere with adjacent components or covers. The 6-32 UNC thread size is common in instrumentation, electronic enclosures, HVAC controls, and small appliance frames. The 18-8 stainless steel construction offers corrosion resistance suitable for indoor and mildly corrosive environments. It is installed with a 5/64 inch hex key or Allen wrench driver bit.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 6-32 UNC button socket cap screw for use in any application requiring an ANSI/ASME B18.3 compliant fastener in this size and drive configuration.

Installation Notes

Install using a 5/64 inch hex key or a matching Allen driver bit; do not substitute a mismatched key size as it will strip the socket. Ensure the mating threaded hole or nut is free of debris before installation. Torque to the value specified by the assembly drawing or equipment manufacturer for the 6-32 thread size and material combination. Stainless steel fasteners can be prone to galling — apply an appropriate anti-seize compound if repeated removal is expected.
