Value Collection 587004PR 2-56 X 3/8 Pan Head Phillips Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 587004PR is a 2-56 pan head machine screw designed for precision fastening in light-duty mechanical and electrical assemblies. It features a Phillips drive and is manufactured from steel with a zinc finish that provides basic corrosion resistance in indoor environments. The screw measures 3/8 inch in length under the head, conforming to ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 dimensional and material standards. Grade J82 steel construction delivers consistent tensile strength appropriate for small-diameter threaded fastener applications. Sold in minimum order quantities of 100 per pack, this screw is suited for volume assembly work.

This fastener is commonly used in electronic enclosures, instrument panels, small appliances, HVAC control boards, and light electrical assemblies where a #2-56 threaded hole is present. The pan head profile sits low and provides a wide bearing surface without requiring a countersink. The Phillips drive is compatible with standard Phillips screwdrivers and power bits. Applications typically call for this size in sheet metal, plastic housings, and PCB standoff assemblies where fine thread engagement is required.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series machine screw for any application requiring a 2-56 threaded fastener with a pan head profile and Phillips drive.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a Phillips No. 0 screwdriver or matching power bit. Ensure the mating thread is clean and properly tapped to 2-56 specifications before driving. Do not overtighten small-diameter screws, as stripping the thread or shearing the fastener is a common failure mode. Torque specifications should be sourced from the equipment manufacturer or applicable assembly documentation.
