Stainless Steel 316 Machine Screw, Hex Head, #10-24, 2" Length (Pack of 10) Feature

  • Machine Screws are often used with nuts or driven into tapped holes
  • Stainless Steel 316 is suitable for use where Stainless Steel 304 does not provide enough corrosion resistance
  • Hex head for easy driving
  • Length is measured from under the head
  • Coarse threads are better for brittle materials, and will assemble and disassemble more quickly than fine threads
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.

Stainless steels are used for their corrosion resistance, high-temperature strength, scaling resistance, and low-temperature toughness. These properties account for their extremely wide use in practically every industry. Austenitic Stainless Steels are alloys of iron and carbon that contain between 16% and 30% Chromium, a maximum of 0.15% carbon, along with Nickel (or Manganese), and other alloying elements. The chromium, which helps develop a passive surface oxide film, provides corrosion resistance in stainless steels. Austenitic Stainless Steels are designated by a 3 digit SAE Stainless Steel Grade beginning with the number 3 (e.g. 304, 316).

Stainless Steel 316 has a higher nickel and molybdenum content than most Austenitic stainless steels which means that this material offers more corrosion resistance without giving up strength or hardness. Tensile strength is 35,000 psi (pounds per square inch).

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. Coarse threads are better when working with brittle materials; they are sturdier and are easier to thread and unthread compared to fine. Coarse threading also allows for thicker coatings and platings.
