Value Collection 0208MPP 2-56 Pan Head Phillips Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 0208MPP is a 2-56 pan head machine screw designed for light-duty fastening applications in metalwork, electronics, and general assembly. This screw features a Phillips drive and a zinc finish over steel construction, providing basic corrosion resistance for indoor applications. It measures 0.5 inches in length under head and conforms to ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 standards, ensuring dimensional consistency for production and repair work. Typically specified by machinists, electronics technicians, and maintenance professionals, the 0208MPP is a standard inch-series fastener suited for close-tolerance assemblies.

This screw is used in residential and commercial maintenance, electronics assembly, instrument panels, and light mechanical assemblies where a 2-56 thread is specified. The pan head profile distributes clamping load across a wider surface area than a flat head, making it well suited for thin sheet metal, plastic panels, and equipment housings. It is sold in multiples of 100 pieces per order, making it appropriate for production runs and bench stock replenishment.

Key Features

• 2-56 thread size, inch-series, for precise fastening in small-clearance applications
• Pan head profile provides a broad, low-profile bearing surface
• Phillips drive for compatibility with standard screwdrivers and power drivers
• Zinc finish over steel for basic corrosion resistance in dry environments
• Meets ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 dimensional standards
• Sold in increments of 100 pieces to support production and bench stock needs

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 2-56 inch-series machine screw for use in any application specifying a 2-56 pan head Phillips fastener per ASME B18.6.3.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists, electronics technicians, or maintenance personnel using a Phillips screwdriver or compatible power driver. Ensure the mating thread is clean and free of debris before driving. Do not overtighten, as the 2-56 thread is fine and susceptible to stripping in soft materials. A thread-locking compound may be applied if vibration resistance is required.
