Value Collection 92685 Machine Screw 1/4-20 X 3/8 in Round Head 25pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 92685 is a 1/4-20 UNC machine screw with a round head and slotted drive, manufactured from grade 18-8 stainless steel with a bright uncoated finish. At 3/8 inches in length under the head, this fastener is suited for light-duty mechanical assembly where corrosion resistance is a priority. The 1/4-20 thread designation indicates a 1/4-inch nominal diameter with 20 threads per inch, a standard Unified National Coarse pitch. Grade 18-8 stainless steel provides solid resistance to rust and oxidation in moderate environments. Sold in a package of 25 individual screws.

This screw is appropriate for general mechanical, electrical panel, HVAC cabinet, and plumbing fixture assembly applications where a corrosion-resistant fastener is required. The round head profile sits above the mating surface and distributes load over a wider bearing area, making it a common choice for sheet metal enclosures, access panels, and equipment housings encountered in residential and light commercial trade work.

Installation Notes

Install using a standard flathead screwdriver sized to the slotted head. Power down any equipment fully before fastening or removing screws on electrical enclosures or HVAC cabinets. Do not overtighten stainless steel fasteners into tapped stainless threads, as galling can occur. Follow applicable NEC or equipment manufacturer torque guidelines where specified by the assembly.
