Value Collection R40663126 Hex Socket Cap Screw 8-32 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R40663126 is a hex socket cap screw designed for secure fastening in applications that demand corrosion resistance and precise threading. Manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel, this fastener features an 8-32 UNC thread size with a 1-1/4 inch length under head. The 9/64 inch hex drive socket accepts a standard Allen key or hex bit driver, allowing high torque application in confined spaces. This screw is suited for mechanical assemblies, equipment panels, and light structural connections where a flush or recessed fastener head is required.

This cap screw is commonly used in HVAC enclosures, electrical panel assemblies, plumbing equipment brackets, and general industrial or commercial equipment where a clean, low-profile fastener is preferred. The 18-8 stainless steel construction provides adequate corrosion resistance in mildly wet or humid environments, making it a practical choice for both indoor and outdoor service work. Installation is straightforward and does not require specialized tooling beyond a correctly sized hex driver.

Key Features

• 8-32 UNC thread form for compatibility with standard unified coarse-thread tapped holes
• 1-1/4 inch length under head for moderate grip range in typical panel and bracket stock
• 9/64 inch hex socket drive allows use with standard Allen keys or hex bit drivers
• 18-8 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in humid or mildly wet service conditions
• Low-profile socket cap head is suitable for recessed or countersunk mounting surfaces

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 8-32 UNC hex socket cap screw for use in any tapped hole or threaded insert accepting an 8-32 unified coarse thread pitch.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed with a correctly sized 9/64 inch hex key or Allen driver to avoid rounding the socket. De-energize or de-pressurize any equipment before fastener removal or replacement. Verify thread engagement depth against the tapped material to ensure proper load-bearing contact. Follow applicable mechanical codes for fastener torque and material compatibility in the specific application.
