Value Collection 872103PR Hex Socket Cap Screw 10-24 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 872103PR is a hex socket cap screw designed for secure, high-torque fastening in mechanical assemblies and structural applications. Manufactured from alloy steel with a zinc-plated finish, this fastener resists corrosion while delivering the tensile strength expected of ASME B18.8 and ASTM A574-grade hardware. It features a 10-24 UNC thread with a 1/2-inch length under head and is fully threaded along its shank. Drive engagement is via a 5/32-inch hex socket, making it compatible with standard Allen or hex key drivers. Maintenance technicians, machinists, fabricators, and field service professionals install this fastener across a wide range of trade and industrial applications.

This screw is suited for use in light machinery, panel assemblies, HVAC equipment housings, electrical enclosures, and general mechanical fabrication where a socket-drive cap screw is specified. The 10-24 UNC thread is a common inch-series coarse thread, compatible with standard tapped holes meeting ASME thread standards. The zinc plating provides a baseline level of corrosion resistance appropriate for indoor and light-duty outdoor service environments. This fastener is sold in minimum order quantities of 100 pieces per purchase.

Key Features

• 10-24 UNC fully threaded shank for consistent thread engagement
• Alloy steel construction meets ASTM A574 mechanical requirements
• Zinc-plated finish for corrosion resistance in standard service environments
• 5/32-inch hex socket drive for use with Allen or hex key tools
• Conforms to ASME B18.8 dimensional standards
• 1/2-inch length under head suits shallow-clearance fastening applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-dimension replacement or stocking fastener for any application requiring a 10-24 UNC alloy steel hex socket cap screw with a 1/2-inch length under head, conforming to ASME B18.8 and ASTM A574 specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed using a correctly sized 5/32-inch hex key or Allen driver to prevent rounding of the socket drive. Ensure the mating tapped hole is clean and meets 10-24 UNC thread standards before driving the fastener. De-energize and lock out any equipment before replacing fasteners in live assemblies. Follow applicable mechanical and structural codes for the specific application.
