10-32 x 1 1/2 18-8 Stainless Steel Flat Head Cap Screw with Nylon Insert helps avoid length-selection errors common when switching from socket head cap screws. For example, a 1/4-20 x 1 flat head screw fits within one inch overall because the head is included in that length. When installed in the correct countersink, the flat head leaves little exposed hardware for covers, panels, or moving material to catch.

For display faces, fixture panels, or visible stainless hardware, confirm countersink geometry, thread engagement, and whether the nylon insert suits the service conditions. Plain 18-8 Stainless Flat Head Socket Cap Screws may fit torque-once joints where a nylon insert is not required.

The nylon pellet presses against the mating thread to provide prevailing torque without changing the countersunk head geometry. For supported flat head cap-screw requests, nylon inserts are installed in-house at the Chicago facility.
