Value Collection 592223PR Hex Socket Cap Screw 10-32 Unf

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 592223PR is a partially threaded hex socket cap screw designed for secure mechanical fastening in trade and industrial applications. Sized to 10-32 UNF thread with a 1-1/8 inch length under head, this screw accepts a 5/32 inch hex drive for installation with standard Allen keys or hex bit drivers. Manufactured from 18-8 austenitic stainless steel (Grade A2), it offers solid corrosion resistance in moderate environments. It meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F837 standards. Electricians, HVAC technicians, and mechanical contractors use fasteners like this for panel assembly, equipment mounting, and general mechanical work.

This fastener suits a range of light industrial and mechanical assembly applications. The 10-32 UNF thread pitch is common in electrical enclosures, control panels, HVAC equipment frames, and precision mechanical assemblies where a fine thread is required for secure engagement in tapped holes. The partial threading allows the unthreaded shank to align mating components before the threads engage, which is useful in close-tolerance assemblies.

Key Features

• 10-32 UNF thread for fine-pitch engagement in tapped holes
• 1-1/8 inch length under head suits medium-depth fastening applications
• 5/32 inch hex socket drive compatible with standard Allen keys and hex bit sets
• Partially threaded shank aids component alignment during assembly
• 18-8 austenitic stainless steel (Grade A2) provides corrosion resistance
• Meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F837 standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard fastener for applications requiring a 10-32 UNF partially threaded hex socket cap screw in stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Install using a 5/32 inch hex key or hex bit driver; do not use an oversized or worn driver that may strip the socket. Ensure the receiving tapped hole is clean and free of debris before installation. Do not exceed the torque capacity of the 10-32 thread to avoid galling, which is a common risk with stainless steel fasteners. A small amount of anti-seize compound is typically recommended when installing stainless fasteners into stainless tapped holes.
