Ceramic Machine Screw, Hex Head, #10-32, 1" Length (Pack of 1) Feature

  • Machine Screws are often used with nuts or driven into tapped holes
  • Ceramic is suitable where primary considerations are high temperature and corrosion resistance
  • Hex head for easy driving
  • Length is measured from under the head
  • Fine threads tap better into harder materials and thin walls, and are stronger in tension than coarse threads

Ceramic Machine Screw, Hex Head, #10-32, 1" Length (Pack of 1) Overview

Machine Screws, also referred to as Machine Bolts, are often used with nuts or driven into tapped holes. They come in a variety of head types and drive styles, but are generally available in smaller sizes.

Ceramic is produced from low pressure injection molded ceramics, utilizing 99.8% fully dense aluminum oxide (Alumina A998). In addition to the outstanding electrical insulation properties of alumina, this material offers unusual resistance to high temperature, corrosion, and abrasion.

Hex head fasteners can be driven with simple wrenches, and require minimal clearance above the fastener because they can be driven or loosened from the side.

A threaded fastener's size name includes information about the major external diameter, followed by the threads per inch, which indicates if it is coarse or fine. Fine threads are preferable when working with harder materials or when threading into a thin material. They are also stronger in tension than coarse threads, and generally provide higher shear strengths.
