Value Collection R88444922 Machine Screw 10-24 X 1/2 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R88444922 is a 10-24 UNC button head machine screw designed for secure mechanical fastening in a wide range of trade and industrial applications. Manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with a bright uncoated finish, this fastener delivers reliable corrosion resistance without plating or coating buildup. The Pin-In Torx drive style resists cam-out and provides positive engagement under torque. At 1/2 inch in length measured under the head, this screw suits shallow-clearance assemblies where a low-profile head is required. Electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and general mechanical contractors reach for this fastener when stainless steel construction and a tamper-resistant drive are both necessary on the same job.

This machine screw is suited for residential and light commercial mechanical assemblies, panel enclosures, equipment frames, junction boxes, and similar applications where a 10-24 UNC thread pattern is specified. The button head profile distributes clamping load over a wider bearing surface than a pan head, making it a common choice for sheet metal, thin-gauge steel, and aluminum substrates. The stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for outdoor, damp, or corrosive environments where carbon steel fasteners would corrode. Sold in a minimum order quantity of 25 pieces per order.

Key Features

• 18-8 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in damp and outdoor environments
• Pin-In Torx drive reduces cam-out and adds tamper resistance
• Button head profile provides low-profile, wide-bearing-surface clamping
• 10-24 UNC thread standard for broad compatibility with standard tapped holes
• 1/2 inch length under head suits shallow-clearance fastening applications
• Bright uncoated finish maintains precise thread dimensions without coating interference

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 10-24 UNC machine screw suitable for use in any application specifying a 10-24 thread, button head style, and 1/2 inch length under head in stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Install using a Pin-In Torx bit of the appropriate size for the 10-24 screw head. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before driving. When fastening into metal substrates, verify the tapped hole or nut thread standard matches UNC before installation. Stainless steel fasteners are susceptible to galling under high-speed installation — use hand tools or low-speed drivers and apply an anti-seize compound if galling is a concern.
