3/8-24 x 7/8 18-8 Stainless Steel Low Head Socket Cap Screw is built for compact fastening locations where thread engagement, length selection, and head clearance all matter.

Cold Headers serves machine builders, repair operations, and industrial distributors that need exact-size socket screws without exaggerated inventory claims.

The low head geometry gives this 3/8-24 x 7/8 fastener a reduced profile for electrical enclosures and control panels, where the low head design helps keep hardware projection controlled on exposed or space-limited surfaces. It may also be specified for instrumentation and precision machinery, where the clean stainless appearance and compact head style support equipment where clearance and access both matter.

The 18-8 stainless steel material is commonly chosen for general corrosion resistance, clean appearance, and routine moisture exposure in common industrial environments.

Use the verified dimensions below to compare nominal body diameter, head diameter, head height, hex socket size, and key engagement against the available space in the assembly.
