254760 - Miller 8-32 x 0.31 Socket Head Cap Screw

Miller 254760 Socket Head Cap Screw Technical Overview

The Miller 254760 is a precision-engineered Socket Head Cap Screw designed specifically for use within Miller welding power sources and industrial equipment. As a genuine OEM component, this fastener adheres to strict dimensional tolerances to ensure the structural integrity of the assembly it secures. The screw features a standard #8-32 UNC thread pitch, a common specification in electrical and mechanical sub-assemblies, ensuring seamless compatibility with corresponding tapped holes and nuts found in Miller machinery.

With a specified length of 0.31 inches (approximately 5/16 of an inch), this fastener is sized to provide adequate thread engagement without interfering with internal components or bottoming out in blind holes. The cylindrical head is equipped with an internal hexagonal drive, necessitating the use of a hex key (Allen wrench) for installation. This drive style allows for the application of higher torque values compared to slotted or Phillips heads, reducing the risk of cam-out and ensuring a tight, vibration-resistant connection.

Material composition and finish are selected by the manufacturer to withstand the typical environmental conditions of a welding shop, including exposure to thermal cycling and minor vibration. Utilizing authentic Miller replacement parts like the 254760 screw is essential for maintaining the factory specifications of the equipment. This item is supplied as a single unit, facilitating targeted repairs and inventory management for maintenance departments.
