Socket Head Cap Screws

Socket Head Cap Screws

Socket head cap screws are often used in assemblies with counterbored holes. The head height is equal to the nominal diameter. For sizes 1/4″ and larger, the head diameter is equal to one-and-a-half times the nominal diameter. Most sizes 1/2″ diameter and larger, are fully threaded. Nickel Systems maintains an inventory of socket head cap screws in both inch and metric sizes.
