Hillman No. 10-32 x 1-1/4 in. Stainless Steel Phillips Flat Head Machine Screw is a precise, corrosion-resistant fastening solution designed to secure metal components with a clean, flush finish. Built for reliability in both controlled indoor spaces and exposed outdoor environments, this screw combines durable stainless steel with a classic flat head and Phillips drive for dependable, everyday use.
What makes this machine screw stand out
-
Material you can trust: polished stainless steel provides superior resistance to rust and corrosion, ideal for metal assemblies that face moisture, humidity, or outdoor exposure.
-
Flush, low-profile head: flat head sits smoothly against the work surface for a clean, professional look and unobstructed clearance.
-
Phillips drive: reliable torque and easy access with standard Phillips screwdrivers; note that the driver bit is not included in the package.
-
Precise sizing: No. 10-32 thread with a 1-1/4 inch length offers a common, compact fastener for thin to medium-thickness metal parts; suitable for tapped holes or nuts.
-
Single-piece boxed packaging: packaged as a boxed, individual piece for straightforward inventory and targeted use.
-
Designed for non-self drilling and non-self tapping use: requires a pre-tapped hole or nut, giving you control over alignment and thread engagement in your project.
Ideal use cases
These screws are perfect for assembling metal components where a flush appearance matters—think electronics enclosures, metal shelving, brackets, cabinetry, appliance installations, and outdoor furniture frames. They’re especially well-suited for projects where a robust, corrosion-resistant connection is essential and where a standard No. 10-32 size is required.
Who is this screw for?
- DIY enthusiasts tackling metal fabrication or home improvement projects that require a durable, rust-resistant fastener.
- Professionals assembling equipment, enclosures, or outdoor installations that demand reliable performance in varied weather conditions.

Practical tips for best results
- Pair with a tapped hole or nut for secure engagement; this screw is not self-tapping or self-drilling.
- Use a compatible Phillips driver; the bit is not included, so have your preferred size on hand for efficient driving.
- For outdoor or high-humidity applications, consider a light anti-seize compound or lubricant on disassembly to ease future maintenance, while ensuring compatibility with stainless steel.
- To maintain surface integrity, avoid mixing with aluminum components in direct contact to reduce galvanic corrosion risk; provide appropriate spacers or coatings if necessary.
