Value Collection 92941 8-32 X 1/4 in Pan Head Slotted Screw 50pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 92941 is an 8-32 x 1/4 inch pan head machine screw designed for general-purpose fastening in trade and industrial applications. Manufactured from grade 18-8 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish, it delivers solid corrosion resistance without surface treatment. The slotted drive accepts a standard flat-blade screwdriver. Thread pitch follows UNC (Unified National Coarse) standards at the 8-32 designation, and the 1/4 inch length is measured under the head. Sold in a pack of 50, this screw suits repetitive fastening tasks where consistent hardware is needed across a job.

This screw is used across a wide range of trade applications including HVAC equipment assembly, electrical enclosure work, panel mounting, and light mechanical assembly. The 8-32 UNC thread is one of the most common machine screw sizes found in residential and light commercial equipment. The pan head profile sits flat against the material surface and is well suited for clearance holes in sheet metal, plastic panels, and fabricated brackets. Grade 18-8 stainless steel makes it appropriate for installations where mild corrosion exposure is a concern, such as outdoor electrical enclosures or damp mechanical rooms.

Key Features

• 8-32 UNC thread - one of the most common machine screw sizes in trade equipment
• 1/4 inch length measured under the head for precise fitment in shallow clearance applications
• Pan head profile distributes clamping load evenly across the fastened surface
• Slotted drive compatible with standard flat-blade screwdrivers
• Grade 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance without coating
• Bright uncoated finish - no plating to chip or flake in service

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 8-32 UNC machine screw suitable for general fastening in HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and light mechanical assemblies requiring a pan head slotted fastener in grade 18-8 stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hand or with a flat-blade screwdriver; avoid over-torquing into plastic or thin sheet metal to prevent thread stripping or panel deformation. Always de-energize electrical equipment before accessing enclosures or panels where these screws are used. When fastening into tapped holes in dissimilar metals, be aware of potential galvanic corrosion - 18-8 stainless is generally compatible with aluminum and steel in low-moisture environments. Follow applicable NEC or equipment manufacturer guidelines for panel and enclosure fastener requirements.
