Customer Questions

What drive type does the SCREW1032-500 use?

The screws feature a Quadrex truss oval head, which is compatible with both Phillips and square-drive (Robertson) tools. Note that the Quadrex head is a rolling change from Hammond; older stock may have a different drive type.

Are nylon washers included with the screws?

Yes. Each screw includes a factory-installed captive black Nylon 6/6 washer. The washer remains on the screw to help prevent loss during handling.

What rack rail thread standard are these screws designed for?

These screws are threaded 10-32 UNF-2A and are intended for use with standard 10-32 threaded rack rails. Confirm that your rack rails use 10-32 threads before ordering, as some racks use M6 or 12-24 threads instead.

Are these screws TAA-Compliant?

Yes. The SCREW1032-500 is listed as TAA-Compliant on the Jameco product page, supporting procurement for government and federally funded projects.

Can this item be returned?

This product is designated NCNR (Non-Cancelable, Non-Returnable). Please confirm your requirements before placing an order.

Customer Concerns

I am not sure whether my rack uses 10-32 or a different thread standard.

Standard EIA 19-inch equipment racks commonly use either 10-32 UNF or 12-24 UNC threads, and some newer racks use M6 metric threads. The SCREW1032-500 is specifically designed for 10-32 UNF-2A threaded rails. Check your rack rail specifications or test with a known 10-32 fastener before ordering this bulk pack.

I am concerned the nylon washer will fall off before or during installation.

The nylon washer on each screw is factory-installed and captive, meaning it is retained on the screw shank and is designed to stay in place during handling and installation, helping to reduce the risk of losing washers during rack assembly.
