Re: 10-32 or 10-24?

We use 10-32 mostly. Often we use a PEM nut in sheet metal so that means we drill a .25 inch hole and use a flange button head 10-32. This is nice because we only need an allen hex key to take things apart and the nut is attached to the metal. When, we need to shed a little weight, we knock out the PEM to switch it 1/4" rivet. We can also drill it out to add a 1/4-20, which never happens.
