Value Collection 0210MSP 2-56 X 5/8 in Pan Head Slotted Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 0210MSP is a 2-56 pan head machine screw designed for precision fastening in light-duty mechanical and electrical assemblies. It features a slotted drive and a zinc-plated steel construction that provides basic corrosion resistance in indoor applications. The screw measures 5/8 inches in length under the head, conforming to ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 standards. It is sold in a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per package, making it suited for production environments, maintenance stock, or repair kits where consistent fastener supply is required. Licensed trades and manufacturing technicians working on control panels, enclosures, and light hardware will find this screw a standard stock item.

This screw is commonly used in residential and commercial applications where 2-56 threaded fastening is specified. Typical uses include securing terminal blocks, small brackets, access panels, and electrical enclosure hardware. The pan head profile provides a low-profile bearing surface suitable for close-clearance assemblies. Slotted drive allows use with a standard flathead screwdriver, making it accessible in field service situations where specialized bits may not be available.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a flathead screwdriver sized to the slotted drive. Ensure the mating thread is tapped or pre-threaded to 2-56 specification before driving the screw. Do not overtighten, as steel screws in small diameters are susceptible to shear failure under excessive torque. Follow applicable mechanical or electrical assembly codes for the specific application.
