2-56 x 3/16 Alloy Steel Flat Head Socket Cap Screw supports flush-mounted fastening in equipment where raised hardware could interfere with covers or moving parts. Its 82-degree countersunk head is useful when designers want a minimal surface profile while retaining internal hex access for installation and service work.

The design is well suited to inspection fixtures, machine frames, material-handling equipment, and repair work that calls for a countersunk internal-hex screw. Alloy steel construction is appropriate for mechanical fastening applications where the drawing or bill of materials calls for an alloy socket screw. The internal hex drive supports top-side socket engagement where side access is limited.

For this 2-56 thread and 3/16 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.
