Value Collection 580471PR Flat Head Machine Screw 10-24

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 580471PR is a 10-24 UNC flat head slotted machine screw designed for general mechanical fastening applications. Measuring 2.5 inches in overall length, it features a countersunk flat head profile that sits flush with or below the mating surface when installed. Manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc finish for basic corrosion resistance, this screw is suited for light-duty to medium-duty assembly work. Licensed trades and maintenance professionals specify Grade 2 zinc-plated fasteners for interior and sheltered-environment applications where high tensile strength is not a primary requirement.

This screw is used across a wide range of trade and light industrial applications including HVAC equipment panels, electrical enclosures, plumbing fixture mounting, and general mechanical assemblies. The 10-24 UNC thread is one of the most common unified coarse thread sizes, making it compatible with standard tapped holes and threaded inserts found throughout commercial and residential equipment. The slotted drive accepts a flat-blade screwdriver, which is common in tight spaces or legacy equipment where Phillips or hex drives are not available. Sold as an individual unit with a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces.

Key Features

• 10-24 UNC thread provides broad compatibility with standard tapped holes and threaded inserts
• Flat head countersunk profile allows the fastener to sit flush with the mating surface
• Slotted drive accommodates flat-blade screwdrivers in confined or legacy-equipment installations
• Grade 2 steel construction suitable for light-duty to medium-duty mechanical assemblies
• Zinc finish provides basic corrosion protection for interior and sheltered-environment use
• 2.5 inch overall length matches the length under head for full-length engagement

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 10-24 UNC replacement or specification fastener for use in equipment panels, enclosures, and mechanical assemblies that require a flush-mount flat head slotted screw in Grade 2 steel with zinc finish.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a flat-blade screwdriver sized to the slot width. Ensure the receiving hole is tapped to 10-24 UNC before driving the screw. De-energize any electrical equipment and depressurize any systems before accessing fastened panels or enclosures. Do not overtighten Grade 2 fasteners in soft base materials, as the lower tensile rating of Grade 2 steel makes them more susceptible to thread stripping than higher-grade alternatives.
