Value Collection MS24693-C295 1/4-28 Flat Head Phillips Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MS24693-C295 is a 1/4-28 unified fine thread machine screw with a flat head and Phillips drive, manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with a passivated finish. It measures 5/8 inches in overall length and conforms to the MS24693 fastener standard, making it a recognized specification item for aerospace, military, and industrial applications. At 0.0085 pounds per unit, this is a precision-grade fastener intended for use where corrosion resistance, thread accuracy, and finish consistency are required. Installation is performed by qualified tradespeople and maintenance technicians working with metal assemblies that demand controlled torque and repeatable fastener performance.

This screw is suited for applications requiring a countersunk flat head profile that sits flush with or below the mating surface. The 1/4-28 UNF thread pitch provides a finer thread engagement than coarse-thread equivalents, which is preferred in thinner materials and wherever vibration resistance or precise clamping load matters. Typical use cases include panel mounting, equipment enclosures, and structural assemblies in industrial and commercial environments. The passivated 18-8 stainless steel construction is well-suited for environments with exposure to moisture, mild chemicals, or outdoor conditions where carbon steel fasteners would corrode.

Key Features

• 1/4-28 UNF thread for fine-pitch engagement and vibration-resistant clamping
• Flat countersunk head allows flush or sub-flush installation in chamfered holes
• Phillips drive compatible with standard and powered screwdrivers
• 18-8 stainless steel construction with passivated finish for corrosion resistance
• Conforms to MS24693 fastener standard for specification-controlled procurement
• No washer included; designed for direct bearing against the mating surface

Compatibility

Designed as a specification-compliant replacement or stocking fastener for assemblies calling out the MS24693 standard in 1/4-28 UNF, 5/8-inch overall length, flat head Phillips configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by maintenance technicians, electricians, or mechanical assemblers depending on the application. Ensure the receiving hole is properly chamfered to accept the flat head countersink angle before driving. Power down or de-energize any equipment before fastener service on electrical enclosures or panels. Use a correctly sized Phillips bit to avoid cam-out and damage to the head recess.
