Value Collection 0202MSP Pan Head Slotted Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 0202MSP is a 2-56 pan head slotted machine screw manufactured from steel with a zinc finish. It measures 1/8 inch in length under the head and conforms to ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 standards. The pan head profile provides a wide, low-clearance bearing surface, and the slotted drive accepts a flat-blade screwdriver for straightforward installation. This fastener is sold in multiples of 100 and is suited for use in precision assemblies, electrical enclosures, and light-gauge sheet metal work where a small-diameter, fine-thread screw is required.

The 0202MSP is appropriate for residential and commercial applications involving instrumentation panels, terminal boards, electronic enclosures, and similar assemblies that call for a 2-56 thread. The zinc coating provides basic corrosion resistance for indoor or protected environments. Electricians, HVAC technicians, and equipment assemblers commonly use this size when mounting circuit boards, nameplates, or lightweight covers where space is tight and a fine thread is necessary for secure engagement.

Key Features

• 2-56 thread size for fine-pitch engagement in small tapped holes
• Pan head profile provides a broad bearing surface without sharp edges

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 2-56 inch-series machine screw compatible with any tapped or threaded insert conforming to the 2-56 Unified National Fine thread standard.

Installation Notes

Install using a flat-blade screwdriver sized to fit the slot fully to avoid cam-out and fastener damage. Power down all electrical equipment before accessing panels or enclosures where these screws are used. Do not overtighten into shallow tapped holes or soft base materials, as the small diameter and fine thread are susceptible to stripping under excessive torque. Follow applicable assembly specifications for the equipment being serviced.
