8-36 x 3/16 Alloy Steel Button Head Socket Cap Screw helps machine builders secure covers, brackets, and housings while keeping the head smooth and accessible. The alloy steel construction serves automation systems where reduced snag potential and internal hex drive access are useful.
Common installation points include production machinery and maintenance repair where socket engagement is practical where side clearance is limited. It may also be specified for production machinery and maintenance repair when socket engagement is practical where side clearance is limited. Selection is usually driven by head shape, socket access, and exposed-surface requirements rather than by the geometry of a standard socket head cap screw.
For engineering layouts using 8-36 thread and 3/16 in. length, the reference head diameter is 0.298-0.312 in. and the head height is 0.077-0.087 in. The nominal body diameter and hex-key information below keep fit review, tool selection, and replacement ordering tied to verified reference values.
Reference dimensions may vary slightly by manufacturer.
