Value Collection 90645 Flat Head Slotted Machine Screw Brass

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 90645 is a flat head slotted machine screw in an 8-32 thread size with a 1/4 inch overall length. Made from brass, this fastener is manufactured to ASME B18.6.3 standards, making it a reliable choice for precision assembly work in HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and general trade applications. The flat head profile sits flush with the mating surface when installed, reducing snag points and providing a clean finish. The slotted drive accepts a standard flat-blade screwdriver. These screws are sold in a minimum quantity of 50 units per order.

This machine screw is suited for light-duty fastening tasks where a flush-mount profile is required. Common applications include securing electrical panels, junction box covers, control board housings, and equipment enclosures. The brass construction resists corrosion and eliminates concerns about galvanic reaction in assemblies that mix brass or copper components. Tradespeople and technicians working on control cabinets, instrumentation panels, and terminal block assemblies will find this fastener appropriate for those environments.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by any qualified technician or tradesperson using a flat-blade screwdriver sized to the slot width. Power down and de-energize any electrical equipment before replacing or installing fasteners on panels or enclosures, in accordance with NFPA 70E lockout/tagout requirements. Do not overtighten brass fasteners, as the material is softer than steel and the threads may strip under excessive torque. Inspect the mating tapped hole for damage or contamination before driving the screw.
