Value Collection MS24693-C102 Flat Head Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MS24693-C102 is a flat head Phillips machine screw manufactured to the MS24693 fastener standard. It features a 1/4-20 unified coarse thread and a 1.5-inch overall length, making it a general-purpose fastener suited for medium-load mechanical assemblies. Constructed from 18-8 stainless steel with a passivated finish, this screw offers reliable corrosion resistance in both indoor and outdoor service environments. The flat head profile seats flush with the mating surface, which is essential in applications where a smooth, low-profile finish is required. It is sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 10 units.

This screw is appropriate for use in HVAC equipment panels, electrical enclosures, plumbing fixture mounting, and general light-duty mechanical assemblies where stainless steel corrosion resistance is specified. The MS24693 standard designation makes it suitable for maintenance and repair work where a military or aerospace fastener callout is referenced. It is typically installed by HVAC technicians, electricians, plumbers, or general maintenance personnel during panel assembly or equipment servicing.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a Phillips screwdriver or appropriate bit driver. Ensure the mating hole is tapped or threaded to 1/4-20 specifications before driving the fastener. De-energize any electrical equipment and follow applicable lockout/tagout procedures before accessing panels or enclosures. Avoid over-torquing stainless steel fasteners, as galling can occur without proper lubrication or anti-seize compound on the threads.
