Hillman No. 10-24 x 1/2 in. Truss Head Zinc-Plated Steel Machine Screws (100 pk) deliver a dependable, low-profile fastening solution for nut-driven assemblies. Built for reliability in a variety of indoor and outdoor projects, these screws combine a broad bearing surface with a versatile drive and durable finish.
-
Low-profile truss head provides a wide bearing surface that helps resist pull-through and creates a clean, flush appearance in thin panels, brackets, and hardware mounts.
-
Size and thread are No. 10-24 with a 1/2 inch length and a coarse thread, delivering strong engagement with nuts and tapped holes in metal, wood, or composite materials.
-
Combination drive accepts both slotted and Phillips bits, reducing cam-out and making installation more flexible with the tools you already use.
-
Finish and durability—zinc-plated steel offers respectable corrosion resistance for versatile use in both indoor and outdoor environments (not intended for extreme exposure).
-
Convenient packaging—100 screws in a boxed set for organized storage and quick replenishment on the job.
-
Usage—designed to work with nuts; pair with matching No. 10-24 nuts and, if needed, a washer to distribute load in braces, brackets, furniture hardware, appliance panels, or equipment housings.
Who this is for: DIY enthusiasts, woodworkers, cabinet makers, appliance installers, and metalworkers who need a sturdy, low-profile fastener that pairs with standard nuts. When you want a reliable hold without a bulky head, these Hillman screws are up to the task.
Why they matter: the combination of a broad truss head, coarse No. 10-24 threads, and zinc-plated steel creates a fastener that’s easy to install, resistant to moisture-friendly environments, and versatile across a range of assemblies where nuts are involved. Compared with higher-profile or self-tapping options, these screws deliver precise alignment, solid torque transfer, and a clean finish in finished or visible applications.
Pro tips for best results: pre-drill where necessary, align components carefully, and tighten with a compatible driver and wrench to achieve the right clamp force. Use washers if load distribution across a surface is a consideration, and ensure you’re pairing with the correct nut size for a secure, long-lasting connection.
