Value Collection 587489PR 10-24 X 5 Pan Head Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 587489PR is a 10-24 x 5 inch pan head machine screw with Phillips drive, manufactured from steel with a zinc finish. Conforming to ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 standards, this fastener is suited for general mechanical assembly, electrical enclosures, equipment panels, and light structural applications across HVAC, electrical, and plumbing trades. The pan head profile provides a low-profile, wide-bearing surface appropriate for through-hole and tapped-hole applications. Length measurement is taken under the head, making this a true 5-inch body length fastener.

This machine screw is used in residential and commercial trade applications where a standardized inch-series threaded fastener is required. Typical installations include equipment panel assembly, junction box mounting, access door hardware, and component brackets in HVAC units, electrical enclosures, and plumbing fixture assemblies. The 10-24 thread designation indicates a No. 10 diameter with 24 threads per inch, a common size across OEM and field-service applications. Sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 10 pieces.

Key Features

• 10-24 thread size, inch-series, with 24 threads per inch for secure fastening in standard tapped holes
• 5-inch length measured under head for accurate through-bolt or tapped-hole sizing
• Pan head geometry provides wide bearing surface with low-profile clearance
• Phillips drive for compatibility with standard power tools and hand drivers
• Zinc finish over steel for basic corrosion resistance in indoor and protected applications
• Meets ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 dimensional and material standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series machine screw for use in any application requiring a 10-24 threaded fastener with a pan head profile and Phillips drive.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and general mechanical trades using standard Phillips-tip screwdrivers or power drivers. De-energize and lock out any electrical equipment before fastening hardware inside or near energized enclosures, per NEC requirements. Do not overtighten into tapped holes in sheet metal or soft materials, as thread stripping is possible. Verify thread engagement depth meets application requirements when installing into blind tapped holes.
