Value Collection MS24693-S16 Flat Head Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MS24693-S16 is a 2-56 flat head Phillips machine screw built to the MS24693 fastener standard. It is manufactured from steel with a yellow cadmium finish that provides corrosion resistance in demanding service environments. The overall length is 1/8 inches, matching the length under head, making this a short-body fastener suited for thin-panel and close-tolerance assemblies. Grade 3 construction delivers consistent mechanical performance for aerospace, military, and industrial maintenance applications. Licensed tradespeople and assembly technicians working to federal or military specifications will recognize the MS24693 designation as a trusted dimensional standard.

This screw is used in applications requiring a flush-seating flat head profile, such as countersunk panel assemblies, instrument enclosures, and thin-wall hardware in aerospace, defense, and industrial equipment. The Phillips drive accepts standard Phillips drivers and bits. The 2-56 thread size targets fine-pitch, small-diameter fastening tasks where precision fit and thread engagement are critical. It is sold in minimum order quantities of 100 pieces per package, making it appropriate for production runs and maintenance kit stocking.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified assembly technicians or maintenance personnel familiar with fine-thread fastener torque practices. Use a correctly sized Phillips driver to avoid cam-out and head damage on this small-diameter screw. Countersink the receiving material to the appropriate angle before installation to achieve proper flat head seating. Follow applicable military, aerospace, or industrial assembly specifications for torque and thread engagement requirements.
