Value Collection MPPFI-1001500-100BX Machine Screw 10-32

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MPPFI-1001500-100BX is a 10-32 x 1.5-inch pan head machine screw designed for general-purpose fastening in metal, plastic, and composite assemblies. It is manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish that provides basic corrosion resistance for indoor and light-duty applications. The Phillips drive head allows fast installation with standard power or hand tools. This screw follows Unified National Fine (UNF) thread specifications and is sized with length measured under the head. Sold in a box of 100, it is suited for production assembly, maintenance work, and panel fabrication across HVAC, electrical, and light mechanical trades.

This screw is commonly used in electrical enclosures, control panels, equipment covers, and sheet metal assemblies where a fine-thread fastener with a low-profile pan head is required. The 10-32 thread size is standard in electronic and light mechanical assemblies. The zinc plating makes it appropriate for dry, indoor environments. Installers working in HVAC controls, switchgear panels, and similar equipment will find this size and drive type frequently called out in OEM assembly procedures.

Key Features

• 10-32 UNF thread for fine-pitch engagement in tapped metal and threaded inserts
• 1.5-inch length under head for adequate grip in multi-layer assemblies
• Pan head profile distributes clamping load and sits flush to surrounding surfaces
• Phillips drive compatible with standard No. 2 screwdrivers and power bits
• Zinc-plated finish provides corrosion resistance in dry indoor conditions
• Grade 2 steel construction suitable for light to medium clamping loads

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose 10-32 UNF machine screw suitable for use in electrical panels, control enclosures, HVAC equipment covers, and similar light mechanical assemblies requiring a pan head Phillips fastener.

Installation Notes

Install with a No. 2 Phillips screwdriver or matching power bit. Ensure the receiving material is properly tapped or fitted with a threaded insert rated for 10-32 fasteners before driving the screw. Do not overtorque, as Grade 2 steel has lower tensile strength than higher-grade fasteners and threads can strip in soft materials. Follow applicable NEC or equipment manufacturer torque guidance when fastening electrical panel components.
