S-92185A182 8-32 x 2 3/4" Super-Corrosion-Resistant 316 Stainless Steel Socket Head Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Exceptional corrosion resistance in harsh environments thanks to 316 stainless steel construction with passivated finish
• Superior mechanical strength with 70,000 psi tensile strength and Rockwell B70 hardness for reliable load-bearing performance
• Precise thread engagement with Class 3A fit ensuring secure fastening and vibration resistance in critical assemblies
• Optimized drive efficiency through standard hex socket design with 9/64" drive for high torque application without stripping
• Versatile partial threading allowing both threaded engagement and smooth shank functionality in multi-material applications
• Regulatory compliance assurance meeting RoHS 3 and REACH standards for global industrial use and supply chain integration
• Coarse UNC thread spacing providing faster assembly and reduced cross-threading risk in production environments

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This 316 stainless steel socket head cap screw delivers critical performance advantages in demanding industrial applications where chemical exposure and mechanical stress are primary concerns. The combination of UNC coarse threading and Class 3A thread fit ensures rapid installation with minimal cross-threading risk while maintaining precise tolerance control in automated assembly systems. The passivated finish enhances the inherent corrosion resistance of 316 stainless steel, making these socket head cap screws ideal for chemical processing equipment, marine hardware, and food processing machinery where frequent washdowns occur. With partial threading design, engineers can achieve both secure fastening in threaded sections and clearance through unthreaded portions, solving alignment challenges in multi-layer assemblies and reducing stress concentration points.

Specification Summary & Compliance

Manufactured to precise dimensional standards with Class 3A thread fit tolerance for superior engagement. Features 8-32 UNC coarse threads with right-hand direction and standard socket head profile. Meets RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) compliance requirements for restricted substances. The partially threaded design provides 3/4" minimum thread length on a 2 3/4" overall length configuration with consistent mechanical properties verified through hardness (Rockwell B70) and tensile strength (70,000 psi) testing.
