Value Collection 1420MSP Pan Head Slotted Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 1420MSP is a 1/4-20 pan head slotted machine screw designed for general mechanical fastening applications. Manufactured from steel with a zinc finish, this screw meets ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 standards. It features a 1-1/4-inch length under head and a pan head profile that provides a wide bearing surface for secure clamping. The slotted drive accepts standard flat-blade screwdrivers. This fastener is sold in a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces, making it appropriate for production, maintenance, and service applications where consistent hardware stock is required.

This screw is suited for residential and commercial trade applications including HVAC panel assembly, electrical enclosure work, plumbing fixture mounting, and general equipment maintenance. The 1/4-20 unified coarse thread provides reliable engagement in tapped steel or threaded inserts. It is appropriate for any trade professional requiring a standardized inch-series fastener for light- to medium-duty mechanical connections.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hand or with a flat-blade screwdriver. Ensure the mating thread or nut is 1/4-20 before installation. Do not overtighten, as the slotted drive is susceptible to cam-out under excessive torque. Follow applicable equipment manufacturer guidelines and relevant codes such as NEC or IFGC when fastening electrical or gas-side components.
