Value Collection A996484 8-32 Truss Head Phillips Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION A996484 is a zinc-plated steel machine screw with an 8-32 UNC thread and a truss head drive in Phillips configuration. At 0.75 inches in length under head, this Grade 2 steel fastener is built for general-purpose mechanical assembly. The truss head profile provides a wider, low-profile bearing surface that distributes clamping load over a larger area compared to a standard pan head. The zinc plating offers basic corrosion resistance suitable for indoor and light-duty applications. This package contains 100 pieces, making it practical for production runs, service kits, or bench stock replenishment.

This screw is commonly used in light mechanical assemblies, electrical enclosures, HVAC access panels, equipment covers, and control cabinet work where an 8-32 UNC thread form is specified. The Phillips drive is compatible with standard #2 Phillips bits used across all trades. Suitable for applications where a low-profile head is needed to clear adjacent components or sheet metal edges.

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose 8-32 UNC machine screw suitable for use in light mechanical assemblies, electrical enclosures, HVAC panels, and equipment housings that accept a truss head fastener with Phillips drive.

Installation Notes

Install using a standard #2 Phillips screwdriver or bit driver. Ensure the mating thread is clean and free of debris before driving. Do not overtighten, as Grade 2 steel has lower tensile strength than Grade 5 or Grade 8 hardware and may strip under excessive torque. Follow applicable equipment manufacturer specifications for fastener torque requirements.
