Value Collection MS24693-C52 Machine Screw 8-32

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MS24693-C52 is a flat head Phillips machine screw designed for secure fastening in metal and structural assemblies. It features an 8-32 thread size and a 3/4-inch overall length, making it well suited for close-tolerance applications where a flush or countersunk surface finish is required. Manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with a passivated finish, the screw offers solid corrosion resistance for use in demanding environments. This fastener conforms to the MS24693 military standard, indicating tight dimensional and material controls. It is installed by general mechanical assemblers, maintenance technicians, and tradespeople working in HVAC, electrical, or plumbing panel applications.

This screw is a standard inch-system fastener sold in minimum order quantities of 100 pieces per purchase. Its flat countersunk head and Phillips drive make it a common choice in equipment panels, junction boxes, access covers, and light structural assemblies where a flush surface profile is needed. The passivated 18-8 stainless steel construction suits both indoor and moderate outdoor service conditions where mild corrosive exposure is a concern.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard service fastener for any assembly requiring an 8-32 flat head Phillips machine screw with a 3/4-inch overall length per the MS24693 fastener standard.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a matching countersunk hole to achieve proper flat head seating. Use a Phillips screwdriver or bit sized for a number 8 screw to avoid cam-out and head damage. De-energize any electrical equipment and follow applicable NEC or equipment manufacturer lockout procedures before accessing panels or enclosures. Avoid overtightening, which can strip 8-32 threads in softer base materials.
