S-90096A829 10-32 x 1/2" ASME B18.6.3, SAE J933 Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior material durability with zinc-plated steel construction that resists corrosion in demanding industrial environments
• Efficient thread cutting capability creates precise mating threads in aluminum, brass, cast iron, and sheet metal without pre-tapping
• Enhanced installation security through the 0.414" flange diameter that distributes load evenly and prevents pull-through
• Versatile drive options with combined external hex/slotted head for flexible tool compatibility and high-torque applications
• Reliable fine thread engagement with UNF 10-32 threading that provides superior vibration resistance and clamping force
• Full threading design ensures maximum grip length and consistent fastening performance throughout the entire 1/2" length
• Industry compliance assurance meeting ASME B18.6.3 standards and RoHS 3 regulations for quality and environmental safety

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These 10-32 UNF thread cutting screws deliver exceptional engineering value in metal fabrication and assembly operations. The zinc-plated steel construction provides reliable corrosion protection while maintaining high tensile strength for demanding applications. The Type F thread cutting design eliminates the need for separate tapping operations, significantly reducing installation time and labor costs in aluminum, brass, cast iron, and sheet metal components. The combination of external hex/slotted drive offers flexibility for both power and manual tool applications, while the integrated flange provides superior bearing surface distribution. This fully threaded configuration ensures maximum thread engagement and pull-out resistance, making these tapping screws ideal for high-vibration environments where fastener security is critical.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This No. 10 screw features precise 10-32 UNF fine threads with right-hand orientation and Class 2A thread tolerances for consistent mating performance. The 1/2" length and 0.414" flange diameter provide optimal fastening dimensions for standard material thicknesses. Manufactured in compliance with ASME B18.6.3 specifications (SAE J933) and RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) regulations, ensuring both mechanical performance standards and environmental compliance are met. Recommended 11/64" drill bit size (0.1719" diameter) for proper hole preparation in target materials.
