Value Collection 872121PR Hex Socket Cap Screw 10-32 Unf

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 872121PR is a hex socket cap screw designed for high-strength fastening in mechanical assemblies, fixtures, and equipment. It features a 10-32 UNF thread size with a 3/8-inch length under the head and a 5/32-inch hex drive. The screw is fully threaded along its shank, providing consistent clamping force from head to tip. Constructed from alloy steel with a zinc-plated finish, it offers solid corrosion resistance in typical indoor or protected-environment applications. This fastener meets ASME B18.8 and ASTM A574 standards, making it appropriate for demanding mechanical and structural fastening tasks performed by maintenance technicians, machinists, and trade professionals.

This screw is suited for use in light machinery, HVAC equipment brackets, electrical enclosures, and general mechanical assemblies where a compact, high-strength fastener with a recessed hex drive is required. The 10-32 UNF fine thread provides good holding strength and resistance to vibration loosening, making it a practical choice in applications subject to operational movement or thermal cycling. It is sold individually but requires a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces.

Key Features

• 10-32 UNF fully threaded shank for consistent clamping along full length
• 5/32-inch hex socket drive accepts standard hex keys and Allen drivers
• 3/8-inch length under head suits thin-profile fastening applications
• Alloy steel construction meets ASTM A574 for tensile strength requirements
• Zinc-plated finish provides corrosion resistance in indoor environments
• Conforms to ASME B18.8 dimensional standards for dimensional consistency

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 10-32 UNF hex socket cap screw for use in any assembly or equipment that calls for an ASME B18.8 or ASTM A574 compliant fastener with a 5/32-inch hex drive and 3/8-inch length under head.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a 5/32-inch hex key or Allen driver. Ensure the mating threaded hole or nut is clean and free of debris before installation. De-energize or lock out any equipment before replacing or installing fasteners on live assemblies. Follow applicable mechanical codes and equipment manufacturer guidelines for torque requirements specific to the assembly.
