Value Collection 40213 Hex Socket Cap Screw 10-32 Unf

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 40213 is a hex socket cap screw designed for secure fastening in mechanical assemblies, equipment repairs, and structural applications. Sized at 10-32 UNF with a 3/4 inch length under the head and a 5/32 inch hex drive, this fastener is fully threaded along its shank. The alloy steel construction with a black oxide finish provides solid tensile strength and basic corrosion resistance in controlled environments. Maintenance technicians, machine builders, and field service professionals install this screw type in panels, brackets, housings, and other light-to-medium-duty assemblies requiring a recessed hex-drive fastener.

This cap screw suits residential and commercial equipment applications where a low-profile socket head and full thread engagement are required. It is well suited to tapped-hole installations in metal components where a standard hex socket wrench or Allen key is the preferred drive tool. The 10-32 UNF fine thread pitch provides strong clamping force and resistance to vibration loosening in applications that see moderate dynamic loading.

Key Features

• 10-32 UNF fine thread for tight clamping and vibration resistance
• Fully threaded shank maximizes thread engagement in shallow tapped holes
• 5/32 inch hex drive accepts standard Allen keys and hex bit drivers
• Alloy steel construction for high tensile strength in demanding applications
• Black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance and reduces light reflection
• Meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM A574 fastener standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 10-32 UNF hex socket cap screw for use in any tapped hole or assembly requiring ASME/ANSI B18.3 compliant socket head cap fasteners with a 3/4 inch length under head.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 5/32 inch hex key or Allen bit driver. Confirm that the receiving tapped hole is clean, correctly sized for 10-32 UNF, and free of debris before driving the screw. Apply appropriate thread-locking compound if the assembly is subject to sustained vibration. Do not exceed the rated torque for alloy steel fasteners at this thread size, and avoid cross-threading by aligning the screw straight before applying torque.
