Value Collection R63009442 Flat Socket Cap Screw 8-32

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63009442 is an 8-32 x 1 inch flat socket cap screw manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel. It features an 82-degree flat head profile and a 3/32 inch hex socket drive. The flat head design allows the fastener to sit flush with or below the mating surface when installed in a countersunk hole. This screw follows Unified National Coarse (UNC) thread standards and is suited for general mechanical assembly, equipment fabrication, and structural fastening applications where a low-profile head and corrosion resistance are both required.

This fastener is commonly used in light industrial, HVAC equipment assembly, electrical enclosure fabrication, and plumbing fixture mounting where 18-8 stainless steel provides adequate resistance to corrosion and moderate chemical exposure. The 82-degree countersink angle matches standard countersink tooling used across most trade and manufacturing environments. Technicians and fabricators working with sheet metal panels, equipment housings, and access covers will find this screw appropriate for flush-mount fastening needs.

Key Features

• 8-32 UNC thread for broad compatibility with standard tapped holes and threaded inserts
• 1 inch overall length suits medium-depth countersunk fastening applications
• 82-degree flat head profile seats flush when used with standard countersink tooling
• 3/32 inch hex socket drive accepts standard Allen or hex key tooling
• 18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet or humid environments

Compatibility

Designed as an inch-series UNC flat socket cap screw for use in any application requiring an 8-32 tapped hole or threaded insert with an 82-degree countersunk seat.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 3/32 inch hex key or Allen driver. The mating surface should be countersunk to 82 degrees to achieve a proper flush seating. Do not overtighten stainless steel fasteners, as galling can occur; applying an anti-seize compound is recommended where repeated removal is expected. Ensure the tapped hole or threaded insert is clean and free of debris before driving the screw.
