Value Collection R57001023 Hex Socket Cap Screw 8-32

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R57001023 is a hex socket cap screw designed for threaded fastening applications requiring a compact drive profile and corrosion-resistant construction. Built to 8-32 UNC thread specifications, this screw features a 9/16-inch length under head and accepts a 9/64-inch hex key drive. It is manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish, making it suitable for use in environments where rust resistance and a clean appearance matter. Electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general tradespeople use fasteners like this for panel mounting, equipment assembly, and fixture securing tasks.

This hex socket cap screw is suited for light-duty and medium-duty fastening in residential and commercial trade applications. The 8-32 UNC thread is a common machine screw size used throughout electrical enclosures, HVAC equipment panels, and plumbing fixture assemblies. The recessed hex socket drive allows installation in confined spaces where a standard hex or Phillips driver cannot reach. This part is sold individually but requires a minimum order quantity of 100 units.

Installation Notes

Install using a 9/64-inch hex key or Allen wrench. Always de-energize and lock out any electrical equipment before replacing fasteners on panels or enclosures. Do not overtighten stainless steel fasteners into threaded inserts, as galling can occur; apply a small amount of anti-seize compound when fastening into stainless or aluminum threads. Follow applicable NEC or equipment manufacturer torque guidance for panel hardware.
