10-32 Threads
The number “10” is a size designator with no numerical meaning. The number “32” refers to 32 threads per inch. You can identify a 10-32 screw by measuring the diameter at exactly 3/16″ (4.76 mm).
10-32 threads are historically the original rack screw type. The term 10-32 comes from Unified and American Screw Threads for Bolts, Nuts, and Machine Screws standards published by ANSI B1. 1-1974. The number “10” is simply a size designator.
10/32 is slightly smaller in diameter than M5. You can use a 10/32 screw in an M5 nut pretty safely.
10-32 screws have a diameter of 3/16″ (4.8mm) where as 12-24 screws have a diameter of 7/32″ (5.6mm). M6 threads are 6mm in diameter, only . 4 mm larger than 12-24 screws.
10-32 UNF PEEK Fittings for 1/16″ OD Tubing with ETFE Ferrules (x10): this 10-32 fitting is used to make a leak-free seal between a 10-32 threaded element and 1/16″ OD (1.6 mm) OD Tygon Tubing or PTFE Teflon Tubing commonly used in microfluidic experiments.
What is the Drill Bit Size for a 10-32 Tap? The correct drill bit size for 10-32 tap is a #21 drill bit. The fractional drill bit measurement is 5/32”.
10-32 is normally used for machines, 10-24 is normally used for carpentry. 10-32 for two reasons: 10-32 is the sze of the thread to mount CIM motors. 10-24 and 6-32 are the most commonly broken tap sizes due to the ratio of pitch to shank diameter.
The first number is the diameter. The bigger the number the bigger the screw. The second number is the number of threads per inch.
A 3/8"-16 screw is a machine screw, the "3/8" is the diameter and the "16" is the number of threads per inch. This screw will thread into a nut or threaded hole.
Brass Machine Screw Nuts are used to connect both metal and wood components. They are also used in conjunction wiith brass bolts, screws, studs and any other brass fastener that has machine screw threads. Brass will protect against tarnishing and corrosion.

Unified National Fine Threads
UNF threads have better torque-locking and load-carrying ability than UNC threads because of their larger minor diameter. Because of their more specific fit, they have tighter tolerances, finer tension adjustment, and can carry heavier loads.
UN=Unified National; UNC=Coarse; UNF=Fine; UNEF=Extra Fine; UNS=Special.
UNC / UNF - unified national thread
The most common types of UN (Unified National) thread are: UNC – Unified National Coarse Thread, comparable with the ISO metric thread. UNF – Unified National Fine Thread.
