Value Collection 0507MPP 5-40 X 7/16 Pan Head Phillips Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 0507MPP is a 5-40 threaded machine screw designed for precision fastening in light mechanical assemblies, electrical enclosures, and instrument panels. Built from steel with a zinc finish for corrosion resistance, it features a pan head profile and Phillips drive for reliable installation with standard hand and power tools. The screw measures 7/16 inches in length under the head and conforms to ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 standards, making it appropriate for applications that require dimensional and mechanical consistency. This screw is sold and ordered in multiples of 100 units.

This fastener is well suited for residential and commercial maintenance, electrical panel work, equipment assembly, and general mechanical service where a 5-40 thread form is specified. The pan head offers a low-profile clamping surface with broad bearing area, and the Phillips drive is compatible with the most common service tools in the field. Technicians and tradespeople working with control enclosures, switch gear, and instrument housings will find this thread size and drive combination frequently specified.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 5-40 UNC machine screw for use in any application requiring this thread size, pan head, and Phillips drive combination in inch-measurement fastener specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hand or with a Phillips-tip screwdriver or power driver set to an appropriate clutch setting to avoid stripping the drive. Always de-energize and lock out electrical equipment before fastening or removing screws in enclosures or panel assemblies per NFPA 70E guidelines. Do not overtighten into tapped holes in thin sheet metal or plastic, as thread stripping can occur. Verify thread engagement depth is sufficient before applying torque.
