Value Collection SHB-1032-1-AS Hex Socket Cap Screw 10-32 Unf

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SHB-1032-1-AS is a fully threaded hex socket cap screw sized 10-32 UNF with a 1-inch length under the head. Manufactured from alloy steel and finished with a black oxide coating, this fastener delivers solid corrosion resistance and surface hardness suited for mechanical assembly, panel mounting, and equipment maintenance tasks. The hex socket drive requires an Allen wrench or hex bit driver, allowing high torque in tight clearances where an open-end wrench cannot reach. Electricians, HVAC technicians, and mechanical contractors commonly use fasteners of this type when securing components inside control panels, equipment enclosures, and structural brackets.

This screw is appropriate for general industrial and trade applications where a compact, high-strength cap screw is needed. It fits standard 10-32 UNF tapped holes and is sold individually, making it a practical option for single-unit replacements or small-quantity service calls. The fully threaded shank provides maximum thread engagement across the entire length under the head, which improves clamping force in thinner materials and shallow-threaded applications.

Key Features

• 10-32 UNF thread size for compatibility with standard fine-thread tapped holes
• 1-inch length under head — fully threaded for maximum thread engagement
• Alloy steel construction for high tensile strength in mechanical fastening applications
• Black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance and reduces light reflection in enclosures
• Hex socket drive allows installation in tight spaces with an Allen wrench or hex bit
• Sold as a single unit — suitable for replacement or low-quantity service use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or service fastener for any application using 10-32 UNF fine-thread cap screws, including equipment panels, electrical enclosures, and mechanical assemblies.

Installation Notes

This fastener is installed by electricians, HVAC technicians, and general mechanical contractors. Always de-energize and lock out equipment before accessing internal panels or enclosures where fasteners are being serviced. Use a properly sized hex key or hex socket bit to avoid stripping the drive recess. Follow applicable codes and equipment manufacturer torque guidance when fastening into structural or electrical components.
