Value Collection MCRI-1000500-100BX 10-24 X 1/2 in Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MCRI-1000500-100BX is a 10-24 x 1/2-inch round head machine screw designed for general-purpose fastening in a wide range of industrial and mechanical applications. Made from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish, this screw offers reliable corrosion resistance in standard service environments. The slotted Phillips drive accepts both a flathead screwdriver and a Phillips driver, giving technicians flexibility on the job. Measurement is taken from the length under the head, which is 1/2 inch. Sold in a box of 100, this screw is a practical stock item for maintenance shops, assembly lines, panel builders, and field technicians alike.

This screw is suited for light-duty to medium-duty fastening tasks in ferrous and non-ferrous assemblies. Common applications include securing electrical enclosure panels, junction box covers, equipment housings, and sheet metal components. The UNC (Unified National Coarse) thread form is the standard for general mechanical assembly in inch-measurement systems, making these screws broadly compatible with tapped holes across HVAC equipment, electrical panels, and plumbing fixtures. The round head profile sits above the surface, making it easy to drive and back out repeatedly during service.

Key Features

• 10-24 UNC coarse thread for broad compatibility with standard tapped holes
• Round head profile with slotted Phillips drive accepts both flathead and Phillips drivers
• Grade 2 steel construction provides reliable strength for general mechanical fastening
• Zinc-plated finish adds corrosion resistance in standard indoor service environments

• Sold in a 100-count box for shop stocking and field replenishment

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 10-24 UNC machine screw compatible with any pre-tapped or nut-fitted 10-24 hole in inch-system mechanical assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a Phillips or flathead screwdriver sized for a number 10 screw head. Ensure the receiving hole is clean and properly tapped to 10-24 UNC before driving. Do not overtighten Grade 2 fasteners in thin sheet metal; apply torque appropriate to the base material to avoid stripping the thread. Power down any electrical equipment before accessing panels or enclosures where these screws secure covers or components.
