I have only seen 12-24 screws ship with some gear but have yet to actually have a rack that can take them. A 12-24 is a much coarser thread and would not even start in a 10-32 hole so if you can run them in more than a turn, then you have some QC issues. I would get a 12-24 tap and run it through the holes to make sure the problem isn't the holes. -- Strange as it seems, no amount of learning can cure stupidity, and formal education positively fortifies it. -- Stephen Vizinczey |
