50-Pack 2-56 X 3/16 Flat Head Socket Cap Screws - Stainless Steel 18-8 Machine Screws

About This Product

Alright, let's talk about these 2-56 flat head socket cap screws - they might look small but they're seriously useful for all kinds of projects! This pack gives you 50 pieces of these stainless steel 18-8 grade screws that resist corrosion like champs. The flat head design means they sit completely flush when installed in countersunk holes - no annoying protrusions to snag on things. You'll need a 5/64 inch Allen key to drive them since they've got that internal hex socket. Here are the specs that matter: they're 2-56 thread size with 56 threads per inch (that's the coarse thread pattern), 3/16 inches long from the top of the head to the tip, and they've got full threading so you get maximum grip. The head diameter is 0.175 inches with an 82-degree countersink angle - which is the most common so they'll fit standard countersunk holes perfectly. What I really like about these is the 18-8 stainless steel construction. They can handle moisture and chemicals without rusting out on you, and they've got just enough magnetic properties to make handling easier. Whether you're working on electronics, small machinery, models, or any precision project where you need a low-profile fastener, these are your go-to. The bright finish looks professional too. Much better than rummaging through mixed hardware bins at the store - you get exactly what you need in one organized package. Pro tip: remember that flat head screws are measured including the head height, unlike some other screw types!
