Value Collection MS24693-C96 1/4-20 Flat Head Phillips Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MS24693-C96 is a 1/4-20 flat head Phillips machine screw manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel. It measures 3/4 inches in overall length and features a countersunk flat head profile designed to sit flush with or below the mating surface when installed. The 18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance suitable for general-purpose industrial, mechanical, and maintenance applications. This screw conforms to the MS24693 fastener standard, making it appropriate for applications requiring mil-spec dimensional compliance. It is sold in a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per package.

This screw is used across a wide range of trade and industrial applications where a flush-mount fastener is required. Common installation scenarios include panel assembly, equipment enclosures, brackets, and structural attachments in HVAC, electrical, and general mechanical service work. The 1/4-20 unified coarse thread is one of the most common thread sizes in inch-system fastener applications, making this screw a practical stock item for service vehicles and shop inventory.

Installation Notes

Install using a Phillips screwdriver or Phillips bit driver sized for a No. 2 tip. When countersinking into metal or composite panels, ensure the countersink angle matches the flat head profile to achieve a flush seating surface. Do not overtighten stainless steel fasteners, as the material is susceptible to galling — apply appropriate anti-seize compound when installing into stainless or aluminum tapped holes.
