Value Collection 353-2316-01 Button Socket Cap Screw 10-32

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 353-2316-01 is a button socket cap screw designed for applications requiring a low-profile head with high clamping strength. Manufactured from alloy steel with a black oxide finish, this fastener offers corrosion resistance and reduced light reflection in service environments. It features a 10-32 UNF-3A thread with a right-hand direction and is driven by a Torx Plus IP25 socket, which provides higher torque transfer and reduced cam-out compared to standard hex drives. The head height measures 0.101 inches, keeping the fastener profile close to the mating surface. Hardness is rated at 39-44 HRC, meeting ASTM F835 and ANSI/ASME B18.3 standards. Licensed tradespeople, machine assemblers, and maintenance technicians typically install these in panel assemblies, equipment enclosures, and precision mechanical components.

This screw is suited for use in light machinery, electronic enclosures, instrumentation panels, and general mechanical assemblies where a flush or near-flush fastening profile is required. The 10-32 thread size is common in precision equipment and thin-gauge metal fabrication. The black oxide finish is appropriate for indoor or low-exposure environments where mild corrosion protection is acceptable. The Torx Plus drive reduces tool wear during high-volume assembly operations.

Key Features

• Button head profile with 0.101-inch head height for low-profile installations
• Torx Plus IP25 drive for improved torque transfer and reduced cam-out
• Alloy steel construction rated at 39-44 HRC hardness per ASTM F835
• Black oxide finish for mild corrosion resistance and low reflectivity
• 10-32 UNF right-hand thread, Class 3A fit for precision engagement
• Meets ANSI/ASME B18.3 fastener standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 10-32 UNF button socket cap screw for use in threaded holes or with matching nuts in mechanical assemblies, panels, and enclosures requiring a low-profile Torx Plus fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a Torx Plus IP25 driver or bit; do not substitute a standard Torx T25 driver, as the drive profiles differ and may damage the socket recess. Ensure the mating threaded hole or nut is clean and free of debris before driving. Torque to the value specified in your assembly documentation for the applicable joint material and thread class. Follow applicable mechanical and safety codes for the assembly in which this fastener is used.
