Socket head cap screws are a popular choice for many applications. Manufactured of alloy steel, socket head cap screws offer a minimum tensile strength of 170,000psi which is stronger than that of a grade 8 hex cap screw. The hexagon drive is advantageous for those installations with limited space, allowing a user to apply the appropriate torque using a standard Allen wrench. Fasteners Etc. Inc. offers these screws is a variety of finishes to meet the exact specifications of your project:
- Black Oxide: Standard coating for socket products, offering a minimally protective layer on the bare steel. Beneficial for uniform color and reduced glare from the matte black appearance.
- Zinc/Zinc Yellow/Mechanical Zinc: Offers a moderate corrosion resistance to the screw, enhancing the lifespan while not compromising the strength.
- Silicone Bronze: Exceptional corrosion and wear resistance with non-magnetic properties.
- Stainless-steel: Superior corrosion resistance with high durability.
