Value Collection 0816MSP 8-32 X 1 in Pan Head Slotted Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 0816MSP is a pan head machine screw designed for general-purpose fastening in mechanical and electrical assemblies. It features an 8-32 thread size and a 1-inch length under head, making it well suited for securing panels, brackets, enclosures, and light-duty hardware. The slotted drive accepts a standard flat-blade screwdriver. Constructed from steel with a zinc finish, this screw meets ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 standards, confirming dimensional and material consistency across the lot. Installers working in HVAC, electrical, and plumbing applications commonly use screws of this type when assembling equipment panels or mounting components in confined spaces.

This screw is appropriate for residential and light commercial applications where a corrosion-resistant zinc-plated steel fastener is specified. The 8-32 thread is a common unified coarse-pitch size found in pre-tapped sheet metal enclosures, electrical boxes, and equipment housings. The pan head profile provides a broad bearing surface and low-profile head that sits flush to surrounding material without requiring a countersink. Sold in quantities of 100 per minimum order, this screw suits service trucks, shop stock, and job-site replenishment needs.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 8-32 x 1-inch pan head machine screw for use in pre-tapped holes conforming to unified inch thread specifications in mechanical, electrical, and light equipment assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a flat-blade screwdriver sized to the slotted head. Verify that the mating tapped hole or threaded insert is cut to 8-32 unified thread before installation. Do not overtighten, as the steel pan head can strip a tapped hole in softer base materials such as aluminum or plastic. Where NEC or equipment manufacturer torque requirements apply to electrical enclosure hardware, follow those specifications.
