Threaded 5\/16-18 UNC with a 1-inch length measured under the head, this fastener is driven by a 5\/32-inch hex key. The body is 18-8 stainless steel, offering corrosion resistance suitable for general industrial, mechanical, and light structural assemblies. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, electricians, and general mechanical contractors reach for low socket cap screws when working in tight enclosures, panel interiors, or mounting brackets where head height matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis screw is appropriate for inch-system assemblies requiring a UNC thread form. The low-profile head reduces the overall fastened stack height compared to a standard socket cap, making it a practical choice in equipment enclosures, access panels, motor mounts, and similar confined spaces. The 18-8 stainless steel construction holds up in damp or corrosive environments encountered in HVAC, plumbing, and pool service applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLow socket cap head reduces clearance requirements compared to standard socket cap screws\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/16-18 UNC thread form for compatibility with standard inch-system tapped holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-inch length measured under the head for precise fastener selection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/32-inch hex socket drive accepts standard hex keys and ball-end drivers\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e18-8 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet and humid environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct-fit replacement or maintenance fastener for any inch-system assembly using a 5\/16-18 UNC threaded hole requiring a low socket cap head style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstall using a 5\/32-inch hex key or ball-end driver; do not use an undersized key as it will damage the socket. De-energize and lock out any electrical or mechanical equipment before replacing fasteners in live assemblies. Apply a compatible anti-seize compound if the screw will be installed in an area subject to repeated thermal cycling or moisture exposure. Follow applicable NEC, IPC, or equipment manufacturer torque guidelines for the joint material and thread size.\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\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch (measured under head)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Low Socket Cap\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex Socket\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHex Key Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/32 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18-8 Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC (Inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31161501\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: R48622846\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51693012451634,"sku":"R48622846","price":1871.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/5d0912ed7ef4089790e6749cf71e5fae_66020785-29a4-4ee5-91f3-7a3ffb8a21cb.jpg?v=1788306208","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-r48622846-low-socket-cap-screw-5-16-18","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
