Value Collection 583472PS 10-32 X 2.5in Round Slotted Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 583472PS is a 10-32 unified fine thread (UNF) machine screw designed for general-purpose fastening in metal assemblies. The round head profile and slotted drive make it compatible with standard flat-blade drivers. Constructed from alloy steel with a zinc finish for basic corrosion resistance, this screw measures 2.5 inches in length under the head and carries no washer. It is a common fastener choice for light mechanical, electrical panel, and HVAC equipment assembly work where a UNF thread engagement is specified.

This screw is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a 10-32 threaded fastener is called out in OEM documentation or field repair. Typical uses include securing electrical enclosure components, control panels, sheet metal brackets, and equipment sub-assemblies. Installers working on HVAC units, electrical panels, and similar trade equipment will encounter this thread size frequently as a standard hardware specification.

Key Features

• 10-32 UNF thread for precise, fine-thread engagement in tapped metal components
• Round head profile provides a low-profile finished appearance with broad bearing surface
• Slotted drive compatible with standard flat-blade screwdrivers
• Alloy steel construction for solid tensile strength in mechanical fastening applications
• Zinc finish offers basic corrosion protection in dry or lightly humid environments
• No washer style keeps the fastener profile compact and installation straightforward

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 10-32 UNF machine screw suitable for any application requiring that thread size and a round slotted head profile in alloy steel with zinc finish.

Installation Notes

This fastener is installed by electricians, HVAC technicians, and mechanical trades using a flat-blade screwdriver or matching bit. Always de-energize and lock out electrical equipment before replacing or installing hardware inside enclosures or control panels. Verify thread engagement into the receiving nut or tapped hole before applying torque to avoid cross-threading the fine UNF pitch. Follow applicable NEC or equipment manufacturer guidelines for fastener specifications in electrical assemblies.
