Value Collection MPFI-1200620-100BX Machine Screw 100-pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MPFI-1200620-100BX is a 12-24 UNC machine screw designed for general-purpose fastening in metal, plastic, and composite assemblies. It features a flat head profile with a Phillips drive, allowing it to sit flush with the mating surface when countersunk correctly. The screw is manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish that provides baseline corrosion resistance in dry indoor environments. At 5/8 inches in overall length, this screw suits shallow-depth fastening applications across HVAC equipment panels, electrical enclosures, plumbing fixtures, and light mechanical assemblies. This box contains 100 screws.

This screw is suited for residential and light commercial trade applications where a standard 12-24 thread pattern is called out. Common install scenarios include securing control board brackets, equipment access panels, junction box covers, and sheet-metal assemblies. The flat head design requires a countersunk hole to achieve a flush finish. The zinc plating makes these appropriate for indoor or sheltered use but not for prolonged moisture or outdoor exposure without additional protection.

Key Features

• 12-24 UNC thread form for compatibility with standard tapped holes and threaded inserts
• Flat head profile sits flush with surface when used with a countersunk hole
• Phillips drive accepts standard No. 2 Phillips screwdrivers and bits
• Grade 2 steel construction provides adequate strength for light-duty fastening
• Zinc-plated finish offers corrosion resistance in dry, indoor environments
• Box quantity of 100 screws reduces per-unit cost for repetitive fastening tasks

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 12-24 UNC flat head Phillips machine screw for use in any application requiring that thread size, head style, and 5/8-inch overall length.

Installation Notes

Install using a No. 2 Phillips screwdriver or powered driver with a matching bit to avoid cam-out and head damage. Ensure the receiving hole is properly tapped to 12-24 UNC or that a compatible threaded insert is in place before driving. Power down any electrical equipment completely before fastening or removing screws on panels or enclosures. Do not overtighten into thin sheet metal, as Grade 2 steel fasteners are not rated for high-torque structural applications.
