Value Collection R57001025 Hex Socket Cap Screw 8-32 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R57001025 is a hex socket cap screw designed for secure, high-torque fastening in applications where a flush or recessed drive profile is required. Threaded to 8-32 UNC specification with a 1-3/8 inch length under head, this screw accepts a 9/64 inch hex key for installation and removal. Constructed from 18-8 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish, it resists corrosion in moderate moisture and chemical exposure environments. Licensed tradespeople and maintenance technicians use this fastener in mechanical assemblies, electrical enclosures, HVAC equipment panels, and light structural applications where a clean drive recess is preferred over external hex or Phillips heads.

This fastener is suited for use in residential and light commercial equipment assemblies, including HVAC unit panels, junction boxes, pump housings, and control enclosures. The 8-32 UNC thread is a common unified coarse thread pitch found across a broad range of OEM and field-fabricated assemblies. The stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for installations in damp or corrosion-prone environments where carbon steel fasteners would be unsuitable. Supplied individually per package with a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces.

Key Features

• 8-32 UNC thread for wide compatibility with standard tapped holes
• 1-3/8 inch length under head for moderate-depth fastening applications
• 9/64 inch hex socket drive for allen key or hex bit installation
• 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in damp environments
• Bright, uncoated finish with no surface treatment to interfere with fit or conductivity

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 8-32 UNC hex socket cap screw for use in any application requiring this thread size, drive type, and length under head specification.

Installation Notes

Install with a calibrated 9/64 inch hex key or matching hex bit in a hand driver or torque-controlled power driver. Ensure the mating hole is tapped to 8-32 UNC and that threads are clean and free of debris before installation. Avoid over-driving stainless steel fasteners as galling can occur under high torque; use anti-seize compound if repeated removal is expected. De-energize any electrical or mechanical equipment before accessing fastener locations inside live panels or assemblies.
