Value Collection MS24693-C70 Machine Screw 10-24 Flat Head

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MS24693-C70 is a 10-24 machine screw with a flat head and Phillips drive, manufactured to MS24693 military fastener standards. The screw measures 3/8 inches in overall length and is machined from 18-8 stainless steel with a passivated finish that enhances corrosion resistance. This screw is sold in a minimum quantity of 100 units per order, making it suitable for maintenance shops, field service kits, and procurement accounts that require consistent, spec-compliant hardware. Electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and general mechanical contractors install this type of fastener in panel assemblies, equipment enclosures, and structural brackets where corrosion resistance and a flush-seating head profile are required.

This screw is used in light-duty mechanical assembly applications across residential and commercial trade work. The flat head profile seats flush or countersunk into mating material, making it a common choice for equipment covers, access panels, junction box assemblies, and similar applications where a low-profile fastener head is needed. The 10-24 unified coarse thread form is one of the most widely used thread sizes in trade hardware, suitable for tapped holes in sheet metal, aluminum, and plastic substrates of appropriate thickness.

Key Features

• 10-24 unified coarse thread for broad compatibility with standard tapped holes
• Flat head with Phillips drive for flush or countersunk seating
• 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in damp or outdoor-adjacent environments
• Passivated finish removes free iron from the surface to extend service life
• Meets MS24693 military fastener standard for dimensional and material consistency
• Sold in multiples of 100 units, appropriate for stock replenishment and bulk service needs

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 10-24 flat head Phillips machine screw for use in any application requiring a fastener conforming to the MS24693 military specification in 18-8 stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Install using a Phillips screwdriver or bit of appropriate size to avoid cam-out and head damage. Ensure the mating hole is properly tapped to 10-24 specification before driving. For countersunk applications, confirm the countersink angle matches the flat head profile to achieve a flush seat. Do not overtighten; stainless steel fasteners are susceptible to galling in stainless or aluminum tapped holes without appropriate anti-seize compound.
