Value Collection 586055PR 5-40 X 1/4 Flat Head Phillips Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 586055PR is a 5-40 x 1/4 inch flat head Phillips machine screw manufactured from steel with a zinc finish. It conforms to ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 standards, making it a dimensionally consistent fastener for precision assembly work. The flat head profile sits flush with the mating surface when properly countersunk, and the Phillips drive allows for reliable torque transfer with standard tooling. This screw is sized for light-duty mechanical assemblies where a low-profile, flush-mount fastener is required. Licensed trades and assembly technicians working on panels, enclosures, and light mechanical components will find this a standard go-to fastener.

This screw is suited for use in residential and commercial applications where a 5-40 thread and 1/4 inch overall length are specified. Typical installations include electrical enclosure panels, instrumentation housings, small appliance assemblies, and light mechanical hardware. The zinc finish provides basic corrosion resistance for indoor environments. This fastener is sold in a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per order, packaged as a single unit of quantity.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series machine screw for any application specifying a 5-40 x 1/4 inch flat head Phillips fastener per ASME B18.6.3.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by mechanical assemblers or electricians working with panel hardware and enclosure components. Power down any electrical equipment before fastening into or near energized assemblies. Use the correct Phillips bit size to avoid cam-out and head damage. A properly sized countersink in the mating material is required to achieve a flush seating surface with the flat head profile.
