Value Collection 1008MSP Machine Screw 10-24 X 0.5 in Pan Head

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 1008MSP is a 10-24 unified coarse thread machine screw with a pan head and slotted drive, sold in a minimum quantity of 100 pieces per order. It measures 0.5 inches in length under the head and is manufactured from steel with a zinc finish for basic corrosion resistance in indoor and light-duty environments. Conforming to ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 standards, this fastener delivers consistent dimensional accuracy for general mechanical and structural assembly work. Installers across HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and light manufacturing trades use this screw type for panel mounting, cover plates, and equipment enclosure assembly.

This machine screw is suited for general-purpose fastening applications where a 10-24 thread engagement is required with a low-profile pan head that distributes clamping load across a wider bearing surface. Common applications include securing electrical panel components, HVAC access covers, junction box lids, and sheet metal assemblies in both residential and light commercial work. The slotted drive is compatible with standard flat-blade screwdrivers, making it accessible in field service environments where hex or star drivers may not be on hand. Ordered in multiples of 100, this screw is practical for stocking in service vans or shop bins.

Key Features

• 10-24 unified coarse thread for reliable engagement in tapped holes and threaded inserts
• Pan head style distributes load and sits flush to slightly raised above the mating surface
• Slotted drive compatible with standard flat-blade screwdrivers
• Steel construction with zinc finish for light corrosion resistance in dry indoor environments
• Meets ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 dimensional and material standards
• Sold in multiples of 100 for efficient stocking and field use

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose 10-24 machine screw for use in any application requiring an ASME B18.6.3 compliant pan head slotted fastener with zinc-finished steel construction and 0.5 inch length under head.

Installation Notes

This fastener is installed by any trade professional using hand tools or a power driver fitted with a flat-blade bit sized for the slotted head. Ensure the mating thread is 10-24 tapped or uses a compatible threaded insert before driving. Do not overtighten, as the zinc finish and steel construction are not rated for high-torque or outdoor corrosive environments. Follow applicable codes such as NEC or equipment manufacturer guidelines when using this screw in electrical enclosures or panel assemblies.
