Value Collection MS24693-C24 6-32 Flat Head Phillips Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MS24693-C24 is a flat head Phillips drive machine screw manufactured to MS24693 fastener standard specifications. Sized at 6-32 thread with a 1/4 inch overall length, this screw is produced from 18-8 stainless steel and treated with a passivated finish to resist corrosion. The flat head profile sits flush with or below the mating surface when installed in a countersunk hole, making it suitable for assemblies where a smooth outer surface is required. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and assembly professionals working in HVAC, electrical, and mechanical applications will find this screw appropriate for light-duty fastening tasks in corrosive or outdoor-exposure environments.

This screw is used in residential and commercial applications where a small-diameter, fine-thread fastener is required. The 6-32 thread is a standard size found in control panels, electrical enclosures, equipment housings, and light mechanical assemblies. The 18-8 stainless steel construction makes it well suited for environments with moisture exposure or where zinc-plated carbon steel fasteners are not acceptable. It is sold individually but subject to a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per order.

Key Features

• 6-32 thread size with 1/4 inch overall length for flush-mount countersunk applications
• Flat head profile designed for countersunk holes, providing a flush or sub-flush finish
• Phillips drive compatible with standard Phillips screwdrivers and bits
• 18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in moisture-prone environments
• Passivated finish removes surface contaminants and enhances corrosion resistance of the stainless base material
• Manufactured to MS24693 military and aerospace fastener standard

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-specification fastener for any assembly requiring a 6-32 flat head Phillips machine screw conforming to the MS24693 fastener standard.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hand or with a Phillips screwdriver or powered driver fitted with the appropriate bit. The mating material must be tapped to 6-32 or a corresponding nut must be used. Countersink the receiving hole to match the flat head angle before installation to achieve a flush seating surface. Avoid overtorquing stainless steel fasteners, as galling can occur; applying a small amount of anti-seize compound to the threads is common practice when fastening stainless to stainless.
