Value Collection MPPI-1003000-100BX 10-24x3in Pan Head Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MPPI-1003000-100BX is a 10-24 UNC machine screw with a pan head and Phillips drive, sold in a 100-piece pack. The screw measures 3 inches under the head and is manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish for basic corrosion resistance. Pan head geometry provides a wide bearing surface and low-profile seating, making it well suited for sheet metal, electrical enclosures, HVAC components, and general mechanical assemblies. These fasteners follow inch-system thread standards and ship in a single-package quantity of 100 pieces.

This screw is used across a broad range of trade applications including HVAC equipment assembly, electrical panel work, plumbing fixture mounting, and light structural fastening. The 10-24 thread size is a common standard in residential and light commercial equipment. The zinc coating provides adequate protection in dry or mildly humid indoor environments. No washer is included or required by design. Installers working in the field will find this size stocked on most service vehicles and in trade supply facilities.

Installation Notes

Install using a Phillips-head screwdriver or a power driver set to an appropriate torque setting to avoid stripping the drive recess or over-tightening into the tapped hole. De-energize any electrical equipment and shut off relevant systems before accessing panels or enclosures where these screws are being installed or replaced. Use thread engagement appropriate to the material being fastened — a minimum of 1.5 times the screw diameter is a common guideline for steel tapped holes. Discard any screw showing damaged threads or a compromised drive recess.
