Description
The 5/8"-11 Flat Head Cap Screw is a heavy-duty, flush-mount fastener engineered for industrial, mechanical, and structural applications where both high strength and a smooth surface finish are critical. Designed with an 82° countersunk flat head and an internal hex socket, this fastener supports precise torque control and strong clamping force while sitting flush with the mounting surface, minimizing obstruction and interference.
