Value Collection A210413 10-32 Unf Thread Cutting Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION A210413 is a 10-32 UNF thread cutting screw designed for secure fastening in pre-drilled or self-threading applications. This pan head fastener features a Phillips drive and a Type F point, which cuts its own mating threads as it drives into metal or similarly hard substrates. Constructed from 401 stainless steel, it provides corrosion resistance suitable for light industrial and commercial environments. The screw measures 1-1/4 inches in length under the head. It is sold individually but requires a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces, making it appropriate for production, maintenance, or stocking applications.

This fastener is used in light-gauge metal assembly, HVAC equipment panels, electrical enclosures, and general trade applications where a machine-thread fastener must form its own threads on installation. The Type F point is suited for threading into pre-drilled holes in thin sheet metal or softer metals. It is typically installed by HVAC technicians, electricians, and sheet metal workers who need a reliable, corrosion-resistant fastener for panel and bracket attachment in both residential and commercial settings.

Key Features

• Type F point cuts mating threads on installation, eliminating the need for a pre-tapped hole
• 401 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in exposed or humid environments
• Pan head profile provides a low-profile bearing surface for sheet metal and panel applications
• Phillips drive for compatibility with standard power and hand tools
• 10-32 UNF thread size suits common machine-thread fastening applications in trade equipment
• 1-1/4 inch length under head accommodates moderate material stack thickness

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose 10-32 UNF thread cutting fastener suitable for light-gauge metal panels, enclosures, and equipment frames commonly found in HVAC, electrical, and light industrial applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by HVAC technicians, electricians, or sheet metal workers using a Phillips-head screwdriver or compatible power driver. Ensure the receiving material is pre-drilled to the correct pilot hole diameter for a Type F thread cutting screw before driving. Apply consistent torque to avoid stripping the newly formed threads, especially in thin or soft metal substrates. De-energize any electrical equipment before fastening panels or covers per applicable NEC guidelines.
