Value Collection 014090PS Hex Socket Cap Screw 10-24 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 014090PS is a hex socket cap screw designed for secure fastening in applications where a low-profile head and high torque transfer are required. Threaded 10-24 UNC with a 3/8 inch length under the head, this screw accepts a 5/32 inch hex (Allen) key drive. Constructed from 316 stainless steel, it offers strong corrosion resistance, making it suitable for wet, chemical-exposure, or marine-adjacent environments. Electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general mechanical trades use socket cap screws like this when access space limits the use of standard hex head fasteners.

This screw is a standard 10-24 UNC fastener suited for light mechanical assemblies, equipment panels, brackets, and enclosures commonly encountered in trade service work. The 316 stainless steel grade provides better chloride and corrosion resistance than 304, making it appropriate for installations in humid or chemically active environments. Sold individually, with a minimum order quantity of 25 units.

Key Features

• 10-24 UNC thread for compatibility with standard inch-series tapped holes
• 3/8 inch length under head for shallow-depth fastening applications
• 5/32 inch hex socket drive for use with standard Allen keys or hex bit drivers
• 316 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet or chemical environments
• Low-profile socket cap head allows use in tight clearance areas

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 10-24 UNC hex socket cap screw suitable for use in any application requiring an inch-series internally threaded socket drive fastener of this thread size and length.

Installation Notes

Install using a 5/32 inch hex key or Allen bit driver; ensure the drive tool is fully seated before applying torque to avoid rounding the socket. Verify the mating thread is clean and free of debris before installation. When installing in stainless-to-stainless applications, apply an anti-seize compound to prevent galling. Always de-energize or depressurize any equipment before accessing fasteners on live panels or pressurized assemblies.
