Value Collection MS24693-C49 Flat Head Phillips Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MS24693-C49 is a flat head Phillips machine screw manufactured to the MS24693 fastener standard. This screw features an 8-32 thread size and a 7/16-inch overall length, making it a compact, precision fastener suited for panel assembly, equipment mounting, and general mechanical applications. Constructed from 18-8 stainless steel with a passivated finish, it offers reliable corrosion resistance in environments where bare carbon steel would be inadequate. The countersunk flat head sits flush with the mating surface when installed in a properly prepared counterbore. This fastener is installed by licensed or journeyman-level tradespeople and maintenance technicians across HVAC, electrical, and light mechanical assembly work.

This screw is appropriate for use in residential and commercial equipment panels, electrical enclosures, and mechanical assemblies where a flush-mount fastener is required. The 8-32 thread is a common machine screw size found in sheet metal components, junction box covers, and equipment housings. Its stainless steel construction makes it suitable for locations with elevated moisture exposure or where galvanic compatibility with aluminum or stainless substrates is a factor. Sold in a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per package.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by maintenance technicians, electricians, or mechanical assemblers using a Phillips-head screwdriver or compatible bit driver. Ensure the receiving material is tapped or threaded to 8-32 specification before installation. Verify the counterbore or countersink angle matches the flat head profile to achieve a proper flush seat. Power down all equipment and de-energize circuits before servicing any enclosure or panel where these fasteners are used.
