Value Collection 581295PR Hex Socket Cap Screw 10-24 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 581295PR is a hex socket cap screw designed for fastening applications that require a compact drive profile and reliable clamping strength. It features a 10-24 UNC thread size and a 2-1/2 inch length under head, with partial threading along the shank. The 5/32 inch hex drive accepts a standard Allen wrench or hex key. Manufactured from alloy steel with a black oxide coating, this fastener offers improved corrosion resistance compared to plain steel and reduced light reflection in finished assemblies. It meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM A574 dimensional and mechanical standards, making it suitable for precision and structural fastening work.

This screw is commonly used in mechanical assemblies, machine components, jigs, fixtures, and equipment enclosures where a flush or low-profile fastener head is required. The 10-24 UNC thread is a fine-pitch unified coarse thread frequently found in light-duty machine applications, electronics enclosures, and general metalwork. Partial threading allows the unthreaded shank to serve as a locating or shoulder element in close-tolerance bores. Suitable for use by machinists, maintenance technicians, and industrial assembly professionals.

Key Features

• 10-24 UNC thread for compatibility with standard unified inch-series tapped holes
• 2-1/2 inch length under head with partial threading for shank-location capability
• 5/32 inch hex socket drive accepts standard Allen wrenches and hex keys
• Alloy steel construction meets ASTM A574 mechanical requirements
• Black oxide finish improves corrosion resistance and reduces surface reflectivity
• Conforms to ASME/ANSI B18.3 dimensional standard

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard 10-24 UNC tapped holes in metal assemblies, machine components, and industrial equipment where a hex socket cap screw is specified per ASME/ANSI B18.3.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 5/32 inch hex key or Allen wrench; use a T-handle or L-key appropriate for the access clearance available. Ensure the mating tapped hole is clean and properly formed to 10-24 UNC specification before driving the fastener. De-energize and lock out any equipment before performing fastener service on live machinery. Do not exceed the rated seating torque for the 10-24 alloy steel screw as specified in applicable engineering or maintenance documentation.
