S-92196A238 6-32 x 1 7/8" ASME B18.3 18-8 Stainless Steel Socket Head Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 18-8 stainless steel construction, ideal for harsh environments and extended service life.
• High-strength performance with 70,000 psi tensile strength and Rockwell B70 hardness for reliable load-bearing in demanding applications.
• Precise, secure fastening ensured by the Class 3A thread fit, minimizing the risk of loosening under vibration.
• Efficient installation and removal with the 7/64" hex socket drive, providing a clean, flush profile and high torque capability.
• Versatile coarse UNC 6-32 threading offers quick assembly and robust holding power in a wide range of materials.
• Dependable partial threading allows for unthreaded shank sections to act as precise dowel pins or pivots in assemblies.
• Guaranteed quality and safety through compliance with ASME B18.3, RoHS 3, and REACH standards.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This socket head cap screw is engineered to solve critical fastening challenges in industrial machinery, automotive subsystems, and precision equipment. The 18-8 stainless steel material provides excellent resistance to oxidation and chemical exposure, preventing failure in corrosive or high-moisture environments. Its coarse UNC 6-32 thread and Class 3A fit ensure rapid, secure engagement in metals and plastics, reducing assembly time while maintaining joint integrity under dynamic loads and vibration. The partially threaded design with a 1-7/8" length offers flexibility for applications requiring precise clamping or alignment, such as in jigs, fixtures, and motor mounts. The combination of a 70,000 psi tensile strength and a hex socket drive makes it a reliable choice for high-stress, space-constrained assemblies where tool access is limited and a low-profile head is essential.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This screw features a 6-32 UNC coarse thread with a Class 3A thread fit for high precision, a minimum thread length of 3/4", and a partially threaded rod type. It is manufactured in accordance with the ASME B18.3 specification and is fully compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) environmental regulations, ensuring it is free from hazardous substances and safe for use in various global markets.
