Value Collection C63034648 Machine Screw 2-56 Pan Head Phillips

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION C63034648 is a 2-56 x 0.25 inch pan head machine screw designed for precision fastening applications in light-duty assemblies. Manufactured from grade 18-8 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish, this screw delivers reliable corrosion resistance without a protective coating. The Phillips drive pan head profile keeps the fastener seated flush against mating surfaces while allowing standard Phillips bit access. Length is measured under the head, confirming 0.25 inches of thread engagement. This screw is installed by electricians, HVAC technicians, electronics technicians, and general tradespeople working with small-gauge threaded assemblies.

This fastener is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a fine 2-56 UNC thread pitch is required. Typical use cases include securing control boards, junction box covers, instrument panels, and small enclosures where stainless steel corrosion resistance is preferred over plated carbon steel. No washer is included or required by this fastener style. It ships in multiples of 100 units per order, making it appropriate for service shops and contractors maintaining fastener stock.

Key Features

• Grade 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in exposed or humid environments
• 2-56 UNC thread size engineered for fine-pitch, small-diameter fastening applications
• Pan head profile provides a broad, flat bearing surface without a countersunk recess
• Phillips drive compatible with standard Phillips bits and power drivers
• Bright, uncoated finish with no added plating or surface treatment
• Length under head measures 0.25 inches for consistent thread engagement calculation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service stock fastener for any application requiring a 2-56 UNC thread, 0.25 inch length, pan head, Phillips drive machine screw in stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hand or with a Phillips screwdriver or power driver set to a low torque setting to avoid stripping the 2-56 thread. Always ensure the mating tapped hole or nut is properly aligned before driving to prevent cross-threading. No special tools or codes are required, but installers working on electrical enclosures should follow applicable NEC guidelines and de-energize the assembly before fastener service.
