Value Collection 0203MSR 2-56 X 3/16 in Round Head Slotted Machine

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 0203MSR is a 2-56 slotted round head machine screw designed for precision fastening in light-duty mechanical assemblies. Built from steel with a zinc finish, it offers corrosion resistance suited to indoor and general-purpose applications. The screw measures 3/16 inches in length under head and follows the inch system of measurement. Conforming to ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 standards, this fastener meets established dimensional and performance requirements for machine screw applications. It is a standard choice for technicians and assemblers working with small-diameter threaded hardware in electrical enclosures, equipment panels, and light mechanical assemblies.

This machine screw is used in residential and commercial settings wherever a 2-56 threaded fastener is required. Typical applications include securing circuit boards, terminal covers, small electrical enclosures, and instrument panels. The slotted drive accommodates a standard flat-blade screwdriver, making it accessible in most field and shop environments. The round head profile provides a low-clearance bearing surface without a washer. This SKU ships in a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces, appropriate for service stock, maintenance kits, or production use.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a flat-blade screwdriver sized to the slotted head. Always de-energize equipment before fastening or removing screws in electrical enclosures or panel assemblies. Do not overtighten small-diameter machine screws, as the 2-56 thread is susceptible to stripping in soft materials. Verify thread engagement depth and mating nut or tapped hole condition before installation.
