Value Collection 90564 Round Head Slotted Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 90564 is a round head, slotted drive machine screw designed for general-purpose mechanical assembly. It features a 10-24 unified coarse thread and measures 0.5 inches in length under the head, making it a compact fastener suited for light-duty joining of components in metal, plastic, or wood assemblies. Manufactured from brass, this screw offers natural corrosion resistance without plating, which suits applications where galvanic compatibility or conductivity is a consideration. It conforms to ASME B18.6.3 standards, ensuring dimensional consistency for interchangeable use in production and repair environments. Installation requires a standard flat-blade screwdriver matched to the slotted drive.

This machine screw is suited for use in electrical enclosures, instrumentation panels, HVAC controls, plumbing fixtures, and general light mechanical assemblies where a brass fastener is preferred over steel. The round head profile provides a low-profile finished appearance above the mating surface. The inch-system threading and standard sizing make it compatible with tapped holes or standard 10-24 threaded inserts and nuts in both residential and commercial applications. Minimum order quantity is 50 pieces per package.

Key Features

• 10-24 unified coarse thread for compatibility with standard 10-24 tapped holes and nuts
• 0.5 inches length under head for precise fit in shallow-depth assemblies
• Brass construction provides inherent corrosion resistance and non-magnetic properties
• Round head profile with slotted drive for use with a standard flat-blade screwdriver
• Conforms to ASME B18.6.3 dimensional standard for consistent fit and interchangeability
• No washer included; plain bearing surface under head

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series machine screw compatible with any 10-24 threaded hole, insert, or nut conforming to ASME B18.6.3 dimensional specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a flat-blade screwdriver sized to match the slotted drive width to avoid cam-out or head damage. When threading into tapped holes, ensure the hole depth accommodates the full thread engagement for the 0.5-inch length. Brass is a softer material than steel; avoid overtightening, which can strip threads or deform the head. In electrical applications, follow applicable NEC guidelines for fastener material selection and torque.
