Value Collection MS24693-S2 Flat Head Phillips Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MS24693-S2 is a 4-40 flat head Phillips machine screw manufactured to the MS24693 fastener standard. Built from Grade 3 steel with a yellow cadmium finish for corrosion resistance, this screw measures 0.25 inches in overall length and features a flat head profile designed to sit flush with or below the surface of the mating material. The Phillips drive allows for straightforward installation with standard tooling. This fastener is sold in quantities of 100 units minimum and is suited for precision assembly work in electrical, mechanical, and industrial applications.

This screw is commonly used in panel assembly, electrical enclosure work, and light mechanical fabrication where a low-profile flush-mount fastener is required. The 4-40 thread size is standard in instrumentation, control panels, and small equipment assemblies. The yellow cadmium coating provides a degree of corrosion and wear resistance appropriate for controlled environments. Electricians, HVAC technicians, and general trade professionals will encounter this fastener in control board mounting, terminal panel assembly, and equipment enclosure work.

Key Features

• 4-40 thread size, 0.25 inch overall length with full-length thread engagement
• Flat head profile for flush or countersunk installation
• Phillips drive for use with standard screwdrivers and power tools
• Grade 3 steel construction for consistent tensile and shear strength
• Yellow cadmium finish for corrosion resistance in controlled environments
• Meets MS24693 fastener standard for consistent dimensional compliance

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 4-40 flat head Phillips machine screw per the MS24693 fastener specification, suitable for use in panel assemblies, electrical enclosures, and mechanical assemblies requiring a flush-mount fastener in this thread class.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a Phillips screwdriver or compatible bit sized for a number 4 screw head. Ensure the mating hole is properly tapped to 4-40 thread specification before driving the fastener. De-energize any electrical equipment before working inside enclosures or control panels. Do not overtighten — small-diameter machine screws are susceptible to thread stripping in soft substrates.
