Value Collection 38021 10-32 X 1 in Round Head Phillips Screw 50pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 38021 is a 10-32 x 1 inch round head Phillips machine screw designed for general-purpose fastening in light mechanical assemblies. Built from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish, this screw resists corrosion in typical indoor service environments. The 10-32 thread designation is a Unified National Fine (UNF) thread, offering tighter thread engagement and greater resistance to loosening under vibration compared to coarse-thread variants. Length is measured under the head, coming in at 1 inch. This package contains 50 screws, making it suitable for shop stock, service trucks, or small-batch production work.

These screws are commonly used in HVAC equipment panels, electrical enclosures, junction boxes, and light-duty mechanical assemblies where a UNF thread is required. The round head profile provides a low-profile finished appearance and distributes clamping load across a broad bearing surface. The Phillips drive is compatible with standard No. 2 Phillips bits, which are widely carried by electricians, HVAC technicians, and general maintenance professionals.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 10-32 UNF round head Phillips machine screw suitable for use in electrical panels, HVAC equipment housings, enclosures, and general light mechanical assemblies requiring a No. 10-32 fine-thread fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hand or with a No. 2 Phillips screwdriver or bit driver. Always power down and de-energize electrical enclosures or equipment before fastening or removing screws from live panels, per applicable NEC guidelines. Do not overtighten into thin sheet metal or plastic standoffs, as Grade 2 steel fasteners are not intended for high-torque structural applications. Inspect threads on mating hardware before installation to confirm 10-32 UNF compatibility.
