Value Collection 0805MSL 8-32 Fillister Slotted Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 0805MSL is a fillister head machine screw designed for general mechanical fastening in trade and industrial applications. Manufactured from steel with a zinc finish, this screw features an 8-32 UNC thread and a 5/16-inch length under head. The fillister head profile offers a taller, narrower head than a pan head, providing greater drive depth for slotted drivers and reduced risk of cam-out. It meets ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 standards, making it a reliable choice for structural and assembly work where consistent thread engagement and corrosion resistance are required.

This screw is suited for light mechanical assembly, panel mounting, and general equipment fabrication across HVAC, electrical, and plumbing applications. The 8-32 thread size is widely used in equipment housings, junction boxes, and control panels. It is sold in minimum order quantities of 100 pieces, which is appropriate for shop stock, service van inventory, or production line use. The zinc finish provides moderate corrosion resistance for indoor and light-duty environments.

Key Features

• Fillister head profile provides deeper drive recess for slotted screwdrivers, reducing cam-out risk
• 8-32 UNC thread for broad compatibility with standard tapped holes in equipment housings and panels
• Steel construction with zinc finish for moderate corrosion resistance in dry or light-duty environments
• Meets ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 fastener standards
• 5/16-inch length under head suits thin panel and housing assembly applications
• Sold in multiples of 100 for shop stock and production use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or stock fastener for any application requiring an 8-32 UNC fillister head slotted machine screw per ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a flat-head slotted screwdriver sized to match the drive recess; using an undersized driver increases the risk of slipping and damaging the slot. Ensure the mating tapped hole is clean and properly threaded to 8-32 UNC before driving the screw. Apply fasteners to the specified torque for the application and material per applicable equipment service documentation. Zinc-plated steel fasteners should not be used in continuously wet or chemically aggressive environments where stainless steel or coated alternatives would be required.
