Value Collection SFIX-100025-100BX Hex Socket Cap Screw 10-32

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SFIX-100025-100BX is a hex socket cap screw intended for precision fastening applications across mechanical, electrical, and industrial assembly work. This fastener features a 10-32 UNF thread size with a 1/4 inch length under head and is fully threaded from head to tip. The drive type is a 5/32 inch hex socket, requiring a standard hex key or Allen driver for installation. Constructed from 18-8 stainless steel with a bright uncoated finish, this screw offers corrosion resistance suitable for both indoor and exposed environments. Sold in a box of 100 pieces per minimum order.

This screw is used in light-duty mechanical assemblies, control panel fabrication, electrical enclosures, HVAC equipment mounting brackets, and general trade applications where a flush, low-profile cap head is required. The 10-32 UNF thread is a fine-pitch unified thread commonly found in instrument-grade assemblies, panel components, and equipment manufactured to UNF standards. The fully threaded design ensures maximum engagement across the full 1/4 inch length under head, making it well suited for thin-material fastening where partial threading would reduce holding strength.

Key Features

• 10-32 UNF fine-pitch thread for instrument-grade and panel assembly applications
• Fully threaded shank maximizes thread engagement in thin materials
• 5/32 inch hex socket drive compatible with standard hex keys and Allen drivers
• 18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance without coating
• Bright uncoated finish suitable for clean-room, food-service, or corrosive environments
• Box quantity of 100 pieces supports job-lot and bulk fastening tasks

Compatibility

Designed for use in any application requiring a 10-32 UNF hex socket cap screw with a 1/4 inch length under head and fully threaded shank, including mechanical assemblies, electrical enclosures, and equipment panels manufactured to UNF thread standards.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists, electrical assemblers, HVAC technicians, or general trades workers using a 5/32 inch hex key or T-handle Allen driver. Ensure the mating threaded hole or nut is clean and free of debris before driving the fastener. Do not over-torque stainless steel fasteners, as 18-8 stainless is susceptible to galling; applying an anti-seize compound to the threads is a common field practice to prevent thread seizure. De-energize any electrical equipment before fastening or removing hardware inside enclosures.
