Value Collection MPFI-1000500-100BX Machine Screw 100pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MPFI-1000500-100BX is a 10-24 x 1/2 inch flat head Phillips machine screw sold in a box of 100. Manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc plating finish, this screw follows Unified National Coarse (UNC) thread standards. The flat head profile sits flush with or below the mating surface when fully driven, making it well suited for assemblies where a low-profile fastener is required. Overall length and length under head are both 1/2 inch. This fastener is a general-purpose workhorse used across mechanical, electrical, HVAC, and light structural assembly work.

These screws are commonly used in panel assembly, equipment enclosures, junction boxes, control boards, and general mechanical fastening applications. The 10-24 UNC thread is one of the most common coarse-thread sizes in North American trade work, compatible with standard tapped holes and threaded inserts found in sheet metal, light gauge steel, and manufactured components across residential and commercial settings.

Key Features

• 10-24 UNC thread — one of the most widely used coarse-thread machine screw sizes in trade applications
• Flat head profile allows flush or countersunk installation without protruding hardware
• Phillips drive for compatibility with standard power and hand drivers
• Grade 2 steel construction provides adequate tensile strength for general-purpose fastening
• Zinc plating provides corrosion resistance in typical indoor and light-exposure environments
• Box of 100 reduces per-unit cost for high-volume or recurring fastener needs

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard 10-24 UNC tapped holes and threaded inserts in sheet metal, equipment enclosures, control panels, and general mechanical assemblies requiring a flat head Phillips machine screw.

Installation Notes

These screws are installed by general mechanics, electricians, HVAC technicians, and plumbers during equipment assembly or panel work. Use a Phillips-tip screwdriver or power driver bit sized for the fastener to avoid cam-out and head damage. For countersunk applications, ensure the mating surface is properly chamfered or pre-drilled to the correct angle before driving. Do not overtorque, as Grade 2 steel has lower torque limits than higher-grade alloys.
