Value Collection 580432PR Machine Screw 10-32 X 1 in Flat Head

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 580432PR is a 10-32 x 1 inch overall length flat head machine screw designed for general fastening applications in metal, plastic, and composite assemblies. The slotted drive accepts a standard flat-blade screwdriver. Made from Grade 2 steel with a zinc finish, this screw provides basic corrosion resistance suitable for indoor and light-duty environments. The flat head sits flush with or countersunk into the mating surface, making it a common choice wherever a low-profile fastener is required. Installation requires a correctly sized countersunk pilot hole to achieve proper seating. This screw follows Unified National Fine (UNF) thread standards at the 10-32 designation.

This fastener is used across a wide range of trade and light industrial applications including HVAC equipment panels, electrical enclosures, control boxes, plumbing fixture mounting, and general sheet metal assemblies. The 10-32 UNF thread is a standard size frequently found in equipment manufactured to inch-based specifications. It is installed without a washer and is measured by overall length. Machinists, sheet metal workers, electricians, and HVAC technicians routinely use this screw when securing panels or components that require a flush finished surface.

Key Features

• 10-32 UNF thread for compatibility with standard inch-based tapped holes
• Flat head profile countersinks flush with mating surface
• Slotted drive accepts standard flat-blade screwdrivers
• Grade 2 steel construction for general-purpose fastening strength
• Zinc finish provides basic corrosion and oxidation resistance
• No washer required — measured by overall length at 1 inch

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose inch-series machine screw suitable for use in any application requiring a 10-32 UNF flat head slotted fastener with a 1 inch overall length.

Installation Notes

Install into a properly tapped or pre-threaded 10-32 hole using a flat-blade screwdriver sized to the slot. For countersunk applications, ensure the receiving material is drilled and countersunk to the correct angle before driving the screw. De-energize or shut off equipment before accessing panels or enclosures during fastener replacement. Do not overdrive — overtightening Grade 2 steel screws in thin sheet metal can strip threads or crack the countersink.
