Value Collection R63009286 Flat Socket Cap Screw 8-32

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63009286 is a flat socket cap screw designed for fastening applications that require a flush or countersunk finish. Featuring an 82-degree flat head and a 3/32-inch hex socket drive, this screw is driven with a standard hex key or Allen wrench. Manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel, it offers solid corrosion resistance suitable for general industrial, mechanical, and light marine environments. The thread specification is 8-32 UNC with an overall length of 3/8 inches. This fastener is commonly installed by machinists, millwrights, maintenance technicians, and assembly professionals requiring a clean, low-profile head seating flush with the workpiece surface.

This screw is suited for light-duty fastening in panels, enclosures, brackets, and mechanical assemblies where a protruding head is not acceptable. The UNC thread form is standard in inch-measurement applications across HVAC equipment, electrical enclosures, pump housings, and general fabrication. The 18-8 stainless steel construction makes it a practical choice in environments with exposure to moisture or mild corrosive agents. It is appropriate for use in both shop and field settings where a countersunk socket-drive fastener is specified.

Key Features

• 82-degree flat head seats flush in standard countersunk holes for a low-profile finish
• 3/32-inch hex socket drive for use with standard hex keys or Allen wrenches
• 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in moisture-prone environments
• 8-32 UNC thread standard for compatibility with inch-measurement tapped holes
• Overall length of 3/8 inches suitable for thin panel and bracket fastening

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series UNC flat socket cap screw for use in any tapped or through-hole application requiring an 8-32 thread and a countersunk 82-degree flat head seating surface.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a 3/32-inch hex key or Allen wrench. Ensure the mating hole is properly countersunk to 82 degrees to allow the head to seat fully flush. Verify thread engagement depth before final torque to avoid stripping the stainless steel threads, which are softer than alloy steel. Do not mix with metric fasteners or non-UNC tapped holes.
