2-56 x 3/8 18-8 Stainless Steel Flat Head Socket Cap Screw is an 18-8 stainless steel flat head socket cap screw for countersunk fastening where a prepared 82-degree seat is used to keep the head flush with or close to the surrounding surface.
Common uses include equipment panels, access covers, and machine guarding, where a smooth surface helps reduce snag points around handled equipment. The 82-degree head geometry is useful when clearance, appearance, and reduced interference are more important than a protruding socket-head profile. The 18-8 stainless steel material is selected for general corrosion resistance, clean appearance, and ordinary moisture exposure in indoor industrial environments and general-purpose outdoor equipment.
For this 2-56 thread and 3/8 in. length, the dimensional data helps engineers confirm body diameter, head clearance, countersink fit, and socket tooling before release to purchasing or maintenance. Cold Headers supports exact-size sourcing for specialty socket fasteners, uncommon lengths, and replacement hardware used in industrial maintenance.
