2-56 x 1/2 Alloy Steel Flat Head Socket Cap Screw is built for 82-degree countersunk fastening where the installed head needs to sit even with the surrounding surface. The flat-head profile is particularly useful around moving stock, operator contact areas, and assemblies where exposed screw heads should not project.

It fits panel installations, service covers, bracket assemblies, and precision machinery where maintenance access and surface clearance both matter. The alloy steel material keeps the product aligned with machine-building, tooling, and industrial repair requirements that specify this fastener family. The internal hex drive supports top-side socket engagement where side access is limited.

For this 2-56 thread and 1/2 in. length, the verified head data helps engineers compare countersink depth, head clearance, and tooling access. Cold Headers has supplied specialty socket fasteners since 1962, including flat head sizes used in machine building and repair operations.
