Value Collection 0824MSP 8-32 X 1.5 in Pan Head Slotted Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 0824MSP is a pan head, slotted drive machine screw designed for general-purpose fastening applications in metal assemblies, enclosures, and equipment panels. This screw features an 8-32 unified coarse thread and measures 1.5 inches in length under the head. It is manufactured from steel with a zinc finish that provides basic corrosion resistance for indoor service environments. The pan head profile offers a low-profile bearing surface with a wide, flat underside suited to standard clearance holes and thin-panel installations. Slotted drive requires a flat-blade screwdriver or flat-tipped bit. Conforms to ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 dimensional and material standards.

This screw is used in light-duty mechanical assembly across residential and commercial trade applications, including HVAC equipment panels, electrical enclosures, junction boxes, plumbing access covers, and general sheet-metal assembly. The 8-32 thread size is a common standard found throughout electrical and mechanical equipment manufactured to inch-series standards. This SKU is sold as a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces, making it appropriate for shop stock, service vans, or production assembly use.

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Install with a flat-blade screwdriver or flat-tipped power bit sized to the screw slot. Verify that mating threads or tapped holes are clean and free of debris before driving. Do not overtighten — pan head screws in thin-panel applications can strip tapped holes if torqued beyond hand-snug plus a controlled quarter turn. For electrical enclosures, follow NEC requirements governing fastener material and spacing.
