Value Collection 40216 Hex Socket Cap Screw 10-32 Unf

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 40216 is a hex socket cap screw designed for secure, high-torque fastening in mechanical assemblies, machinery, and equipment repair applications. Threaded to 10-32 UNF specifications with a 1.5-inch length under head, this fastener is partially threaded and driven with a 5/32-inch hex key. Constructed from alloy steel with a black oxide finish, it delivers strong mechanical performance with basic corrosion resistance in dry or lightly oiled environments. This screw meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM A574 standards, making it a reliable choice for load-bearing fastener applications where dimensional accuracy and tensile strength are required.

This screw is suited for use in machine frames, fixture mounting, tool and die work, and general industrial assembly. The 10-32 UNF thread pitch is a fine-thread designation commonly found in precision equipment, instrument panels, and light structural components. The black oxide coating reduces light reflection and provides minimal surface protection. Technicians and machinists working on maintenance, repair, and assembly tasks will find this screw a standard fit for fine-thread socket cap applications.

Key Features

• 10-32 UNF fine thread for use in precision mechanical assemblies
• 1.5-inch length under head with partial threading for secure clamping
• 5/32-inch hex drive for use with standard Allen or hex keys
• Alloy steel construction meets ASTM A574 tensile strength requirements
• Black oxide coating provides corrosion resistance and low-reflectance finish
• Conforms to ASME/ANSI B18.3 dimensional standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 10-32 UNF hex socket cap screw for use in any application requiring ASME/ANSI B18.3-compliant fasteners with a partially threaded alloy steel body.

Installation Notes

Install using a calibrated 5/32-inch hex key or Allen driver to avoid rounding the socket. Ensure the mating threaded hole is clean and free of debris before driving. Do not exceed the rated torque range for 10-32 alloy steel fasteners as specified by the applicable equipment service documentation. Fastener replacement should be performed by a qualified mechanic or maintenance technician familiar with torque and thread engagement requirements.
