Value Collection 1048MSL 10-24 X 3 in Fillister Slotted Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 1048MSL is a 10-24 UNC machine screw with a fillister head and slotted drive, manufactured from steel with a zinc finish. At 3 inches in length under head, this fastener is built to ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 standards. The fillister head features a taller profile and smaller diameter than a standard pan head, making it well suited for counterbored holes and close-clearance assemblies. The zinc coating provides basic corrosion resistance for general indoor and light-duty applications. Licensed tradespeople and assembly technicians working in HVAC, electrical, and mechanical panel applications regularly specify this screw type for equipment assembly and field repairs.

This screw is appropriate for use in light-duty mechanical assemblies, control panel fabrication, and equipment mounting where a slotted fillister head fastener is required. The 10-24 thread is a coarse unified national thread form common across trade and industrial equipment. Applications include securing electrical enclosures, mounting brackets, and general machine assembly in both residential and commercial settings.

Key Features

• 10-24 UNC thread for broad compatibility with standard tapped holes
• Fillister head profile suits counterbored recesses and close-clearance applications
• Slotted drive works with standard flat-blade screwdrivers
• Steel construction with zinc finish for general-purpose corrosion resistance
• Meets ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 fastener standards
• 3-inch length under head accommodates deeper stack-up assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose machine screw for use in any application requiring a 10-24 UNC threaded fastener with a fillister head and slotted drive. Confirm hole depth and thread engagement requirements before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a standard flat-blade screwdriver sized to the slot. Ensure the mating hole is tapped to 10-24 UNC and that thread engagement depth is adequate for the load. Avoid overtightening, which can strip the slot drive or damage threads in softer base materials. When used in electrical enclosures, follow applicable NEC guidelines for fastener selection and panel integrity.
