Value Collection 584472PR 10-32 X 2-1/2 Truss Head Slotted Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 584472PR is a 10-32 x 2-1/2 inch truss head machine screw with a slotted drive, manufactured from steel with a zinc finish. The truss head profile provides a wider, low-profile bearing surface compared to a standard pan head, distributing clamping load across a larger area. The zinc coating offers basic corrosion resistance suitable for indoor and general mechanical applications. This fastener conforms to ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 standards, making it a recognized option for electrical enclosures, control panels, HVAC equipment assemblies, and light mechanical fabrication where inch-series unified fine thread fasteners are specified.

This screw is suited for applications requiring a 10-32 unified fine (UNF) thread in materials where thread engagement depth supports the 2-1/2 inch length. Typical uses include securing sheet metal panels, electrical box covers, equipment chassis components, and similar light-to-medium duty assemblies in residential and commercial mechanical, electrical, and HVAC installations. The slotted drive is compatible with flat-blade screwdrivers and slotted power bits commonly found on any service truck.

Key Features

• 10-32 unified fine thread for positive engagement in tapped holes and threaded inserts
• Truss head profile delivers a wide, low-profile bearing surface to reduce pull-through in thin materials
• Slotted drive compatible with standard flat-blade screwdrivers and bits
• Zinc finish provides basic corrosion resistance for indoor and general service environments
• Meets ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 dimensional and material standards
• Length measured under head at 2-1/2 inches for consistent thread engagement calculation

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series 10-32 UNF machine screw for use in any application requiring ASME B18.6.3 compliant truss head fasteners with a slotted drive and zinc finish.

Installation Notes

Install using a flat-blade screwdriver or slotted bit matched to the head slot width to avoid cam-out and slot damage. De-energize any electrical equipment and follow applicable NEC lockout/tagout procedures before replacing or installing fasteners in live panels or enclosures. Do not exceed the rated torque capacity of the base material or threaded insert into which this screw is driven. Inspect threads for damage before installation and discard any fastener with crossed, stripped, or deformed threads.
