Value Collection 581116P Hex Socket Cap Screw 10-32 Unf

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 581116P is a hex socket cap screw designed for applications requiring a compact, high-strength threaded fastener. Threaded 10-32 UNF with a 3/16-inch length under head and a 5/32-inch hex drive, this screw is fully threaded from head to tip. Constructed from alloy steel and finished with a black oxide coating, it provides corrosion resistance and a consistent surface hardness suited to precision mechanical assemblies. Manufactured to ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM A574 standards, it meets the dimensional and mechanical requirements expected in industrial and trade fastener applications. Installation requires a 5/32-inch hex key or Allen driver.

This fastener is suited for use in light machinery, electrical enclosures, HVAC equipment panels, and other assemblies where a low-profile cap screw with fine unified thread is required. The 10-32 UNF thread pitch is common in instrumentation, small equipment frames, and sheet metal assemblies where thread engagement in thin material is a priority. Sold in a package quantity of one with a minimum order quantity of 100 units, this screw is appropriate for maintenance shops, production environments, and field service kits requiring reliable small-diameter fasteners.

Key Features

• 10-32 UNF fully threaded for maximum thread engagement along the full shank length
• 3/16-inch length under head suits thin-section and close-clearance assemblies
• 5/32-inch hex socket drive compatible with standard Allen keys and hex bit drivers
• Alloy steel construction meets ASTM A574 mechanical property requirements
• Black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance and reduces light reflection
• Conforms to ASME/ANSI B18.3 dimensional standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 10-32 UNF hex socket cap screw suitable for tapped holes meeting ASME/ANSI B18.3 specifications in mechanical assemblies, equipment panels, and instrumentation hardware.

Installation Notes

Install using a calibrated 5/32-inch hex key or matching Allen bit driver. De-energize any electrical equipment and relieve system pressure before replacing fasteners in live assemblies. Verify thread engagement and hole tapping conform to UNF standards before torquing. Do not substitute a metric hex key, as improper drive fit can round the socket.
