Value Collection 38007 8-32 X 1/2 in Round Head Phillips Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 38007 is a No. 8-32 x 1/2 inch round head Phillips machine screw designed for general mechanical fastening applications. Built from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish, this fastener delivers corrosion resistance suitable for indoor and light-duty industrial use. The 8-32 UNC thread pitch is one of the most common coarse-thread specifications in machine assembly, making this screw a reliable stock item for maintenance technicians, electricians, HVAC installers, and general tradespeople. Length is measured under the head at 1/2 inch. This screw ships without a washer.

This screw is used across a wide range of light mechanical and electrical assembly tasks, including panel mounting, equipment enclosures, junction boxes, and fixture attachment in residential and light commercial settings. The Phillips drive is compatible with standard Phillips screwdrivers and bits in No. 2 size, which is the conventional fit for No. 8 screws. The round head profile distributes clamping load over a wider surface area and sits proud of the workpiece, making it easy to drive and remove during servicing.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose replacement or stock fastener for any application requiring an 8-32 UNC x 1/2 inch round head Phillips machine screw in Grade 2 steel with zinc plating.

Installation Notes

A licensed electrician or qualified mechanical technician should install fasteners in code-governed assemblies per NEC or applicable standards. Power down and de-energize any electrical enclosure before inserting or removing screws from panel or equipment housings. Use a No. 2 Phillips screwdriver or bit to avoid cam-out and thread damage. Do not overtighten — apply only enough torque to seat the head firmly against the workpiece without stripping the thread.
