Value Collection MS24693-C51 Machine Screw 8-32 Flat Head

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MS24693-C51 is a flat head Phillips machine screw designed for general-purpose mechanical assembly and fastening applications. Built to the MS24693 military fastener standard, it features an 8-32 unified coarse thread and a 0.625-inch overall length. The screw is manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with a passivated finish, providing corrosion resistance suitable for use in demanding environments. This style of fastener is commonly installed by maintenance technicians, field service professionals, and assembly workers who require a flush-mount fastener that sits level with or below the mating surface.

This screw is suited for use in panel assemblies, electrical enclosures, HVAC equipment housings, and general mechanical assemblies where a countersunk flat head profile is required. The 8-32 thread size is a common designation across a wide range of commercial and industrial hardware applications. The passivated stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for installations where moisture exposure or corrosion resistance is a consideration. This item is sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces.

Installation Notes

Install using a Phillips screwdriver or Phillips-bit driver appropriate for the screw head size. Ensure the mating material is properly countersunk to accommodate the flat head profile before driving. Do not overtighten stainless steel fasteners, as galling can occur; applying an anti-seize compound to the threads is common practice in stainless-to-stainless assemblies. Power down or de-energize any electrical enclosure or panel before installing or removing fasteners in live equipment.
