Value Collection IEH4406 Sex Bolt Binding Post 10-24

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION IEH4406 is a steel sex bolt binding post with a 10-24 UNC thread and a zinc-plated finish. Sex bolts, also called barrel bolts or Chicago screws, consist of a threaded barrel that accepts a mating screw to clamp two or more materials together without a conventional nut. This post features a truss-style head and accepts both slotted and Phillips drivers, giving installers flexibility in the field. The barrel measures 0.375 inches in length, with an overall assembled length of 0.25 inches. At 0.02 pounds per unit, it is suited for light-duty fastening applications where a clean, flush through-bolt connection is required.

This binding post is used in electrical panel assembly, enclosure fabrication, leather goods, bookbinding, and general industrial fastening where a through-bolt connection is needed without exposed threading. The 10-24 UNC thread size is a common standard pitch, making it compatible with a wide range of mating screws and threaded accessories across trade and light manufacturing applications. Sold individually, with a minimum order quantity of 100 units per order.

Key Features

• Slotted and Phillips dual-drive truss head for flexible installation
• 10-24 UNC thread standard for broad compatibility with mating screws
• Zinc-plated steel construction provides corrosion resistance in indoor environments

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 10-24 UNC sex bolt binding post compatible with mating 10-24 cap screws and binding post screws used in electrical enclosures, panel assemblies, and general industrial fastening applications.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a slotted or Phillips screwdriver. Insert the barrel through the mating hole from one side and thread the corresponding cap screw in from the opposite side, tightening until the clamped materials are secure. Avoid overtightening, which can strip the threads or distort the truss head. Ensure the through-hole diameter is sized appropriately for the barrel outer diameter before assembly.
