Product highlights
- Material: 18/8 stainless steel (type 304) for excellent corrosion resistance and long-lasting performance.
- Size & Thread: 5/16-18 compatibility with standard 5/16" threaded holes or nuts; length is 3/8".
- Drive: Internal hex (Allen) drive for a secure, flush installation in tight spaces.
- Finish: Passivated finish to enhance corrosion resistance and ease of cleaning.
- Application: Suitable for cabinetry, machinery, electronics enclosures, outdoor equipment, and general light-to-medium duty assemblies.
Why choose flat socket cap screws? They combine a low-profile head with a robust socket drive, delivering a clean look and reliable clamping force in assemblies where a flush surface is required.
Care and installation tips: Use the appropriate hex wrench for a snug fit, ensure thread engagement to avoid cross-threading, and avoid exposing 18/8 stainless steel to harsh chlorides beyond its tolerance. After installation, wipe away residues to maintain surface protection.
