Value Collection R82232322 Socket Cap Screw 8-32

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R82232322 is a socket cap screw designed for secure fastening in close-tolerance applications where a low-profile, high-strength head is required. This screw features an 8-32 unified coarse thread and a length under head of 0.5 inches, making it suitable for compact assemblies. The hex socket drive accepts a 9/64-inch hex key for installation. Manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish, it offers reliable corrosion resistance in moderate environments. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and assembly professionals install this fastener where a flush or recessed drive head is needed.

This socket cap screw is used in mechanical assemblies, equipment panels, instrumentation enclosures, and light structural applications across industrial, HVAC, and electrical trades. The 8-32 thread size is a common machine screw specification found in control board mounting, electrical enclosures, and precision equipment. The stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for indoor and lightly corrosive environments. It is sold in a minimum order quantity of 10 pieces per order.

Installation Notes

Install using a 9/64-inch hex key or Allen driver; ensure the mating tapped hole is clean and free of debris before threading. De-energize any electrical equipment and follow applicable NFPA 70 or equipment-specific lockout procedures before working in enclosures. Avoid overtightening stainless steel fasteners, as 18-8 material is susceptible to galling; apply anti-seize compound to the threads if repeated removal is anticipated.
