Value Collection MP73052 Hex Socket Cap Screw 10-32 Unf

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MP73052 is a hex socket cap screw designed for reliable fastening in mechanical, structural, and industrial assembly applications. The screw features a 10-32 UNF thread size with a 2-inch length under the head and is partially threaded for positive clamping force. It is driven with a 5/32-inch hex key. Manufactured from alloy steel and finished with black oxide coating, this fastener delivers solid tensile strength and moderate corrosion resistance in controlled environments. Licensed tradespeople and assembly technicians working on equipment, enclosures, or fabricated components will find this a standard cap screw for demanding fastening tasks.

This cap screw is suited for general industrial and mechanical assembly where a socket head profile is required for flush or recessed installation. The 10-32 UNF thread is a fine-pitch unified thread commonly used in precision equipment, panel assemblies, and light-duty structural connections. The black oxide finish reduces light reflection and provides mild surface protection. This SKU is sold in a package quantity of 25, making it practical for bench stock or service kits. Installation is performed by maintenance technicians, millwrights, and equipment assemblers using standard hex key or Allen wrench tooling.

Key Features

• 10-32 UNF fine-pitch thread for precise engagement in tapped holes
• 2-inch length under head with partial threading for firm clamping
• 5/32-inch hex drive for use with standard Allen keys or hex bit drivers
• Alloy steel construction for high tensile strength
• Black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance and low-reflectance surface
• Meets ASME B18.3 and ASTM A574 fastener standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or bench-stock fastener for applications requiring a 10-32 UNF hex socket cap screw with a 2-inch length under head and 5/32-inch drive.

Installation Notes

Install and remove using a calibrated torque driver or hex key to avoid stripping the socket recess. Ensure the mating tapped hole is clean and free of debris before threading to prevent cross-threading or galling on the alloy steel threads. De-energize or lock out any equipment before performing fastener service per applicable safety standards. Do not exceed the rated torque for 10-32 alloy steel fasteners as specified by the equipment manufacturer.
