Value Collection 1512MPP 1/4-28 X 3/4 in Pan Head Phillips Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 1512MPP is a 1/4-28 unified fine thread machine screw designed for general mechanical fastening in metal assemblies. This pan head, Phillips drive fastener measures 3/4 inch in length under head and is manufactured from steel with a zinc finish for basic corrosion resistance. The pan head profile provides a low-profile bearing surface suitable for through-hole and tapped-hole applications. Grade J82 indicates compliance with SAE J82 and ASME B18.6.3 standards. Electricians, HVAC techs, plumbers, and general tradespeople use this screw when joining sheet metal panels, equipment enclosures, junction boxes, and structural brackets requiring a 1/4-28 fine thread engagement.

This screw is suited for residential and light commercial mechanical and electrical applications. It is commonly used to secure control panels, equipment covers, mounting brackets, and similar assemblies where a fine-pitch thread provides strong holding power in tapped steel or through-hole applications. The Phillips drive is compatible with standard No. 2 Phillips bits and drivers available in any trade toolkit. The zinc finish provides a baseline level of moisture resistance appropriate for indoor and protected outdoor environments.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/4-28 fine thread machine screw for use in any tapped or through-hole application requiring an ASME B18.6.3 or SAE J82 compliant pan head Phillips fastener.

Installation Notes

Use a No. 2 Phillips screwdriver or bit at a controlled torque appropriate for the base material to avoid stripping the drive or damaging threads. Ensure the mating tapped hole or nut is free of debris and aligned before driving. Power down any electrical equipment before fastening or removing hardware inside control panels or enclosures. Do not over-drive into thin sheet metal, as pan head screws rely on thread engagement depth for holding strength.
