S-92196A255 10-24 x 2 1/2" 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 a tensile strength of 70,000 psi and Rockwell B70 hardness for reliable load-bearing in demanding applications.
• Precise, secure fastening ensured by Class 3A thread fit and UNC coarse threads, providing excellent vibration resistance and easy assembly.
• Efficient installation and removal using the 5/32" hex drive, allowing for high torque application in confined spaces.
• Versatile partial threading on a 2-1/2" length offers flexibility for applications requiring both threaded and unthreaded sections.
• Guaranteed dimensional consistency and interchangeability through compliance with the rigorous ASME B18.3 standard.
• Safe for regulated industries with full compliance to RoHS 3 and REACH environmental directives.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This Socket Head Cap Screw is engineered to solve critical challenges in industrial assembly and machinery. The 18-8 Stainless Steel material provides excellent resistance to oxidation and corrosion, making it suitable for outdoor, marine, or chemical-exposed environments. Its 10-24 UNC coarse threads and Class 3A fit ensure a tight, reliable hold that resists loosening under vibration, a common failure point in dynamic equipment. The hex socket drive allows for high torque application with standard tools, facilitating secure fastening in tight spaces where wrench clearance is limited. This combination of a partially threaded design and robust 70,000 psi tensile strength makes it an ideal choice for precision fixtures, automotive components, and heavy-duty machinery frames, delivering long-term reliability and reducing maintenance downtime.
