Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R40668408 is a hex socket cap screw intended for threaded fastening applications across industrial, mechanical, and trade service work. It features a 10-24 UNC thread specification and measures 1/2 inch in length under the head. Drive engagement is via a 5/32 inch internal hex socket, suited for use with standard hex keys or Allen-type drivers. The fastener is manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel, which provides corrosion resistance appropriate for both indoor and outdoor installations. Technicians and tradespeople working on equipment assemblies, panel hardware, and mechanical enclosures will find this screw suitable for moderate-load fastening tasks.

This screw is appropriate for use in light to medium-duty assembly work where corrosion resistance is a priority. Typical applications include HVAC equipment panels, electrical enclosures, plumbing fixture hardware, and general equipment maintenance. The 10-24 UNC thread is a common size encountered across a wide range of commercial and residential equipment, making this fastener a practical stock item for field service and shop use alike.
