Value Collection MS24693-S9 Flat Head Phillips Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MS24693-S9 is a 4-40 unified coarse thread machine screw built to MS24693 fastener standard. It features a flat head with a Phillips drive and measures 7/8 inches in overall length. Constructed from Grade 3 steel with a yellow cadmium finish, this screw provides corrosion resistance and reliable clamping force in demanding environments. The flat head design seats flush with the mating surface, making it well suited for close-clearance assemblies. Licensed HVAC technicians, electricians, and mechanical contractors reach for this type of screw when securing control panels, junction boxes, and equipment enclosures.

This screw is used in residential and light commercial applications wherever a 4-40 threaded fastener is required. The MS24693 military specification designation makes it a common choice for OEM equipment assembly and field service repairs where specification compliance is expected. The yellow cadmium finish offers added protection in environments with moderate moisture exposure. Sold in a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per order, with a package quantity of 1, making it appropriate for stocking maintenance inventories.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by mechanical technicians, electricians, or HVAC service professionals using a standard Phillips screwdriver or matching power bit. De-energize any electrical equipment and follow applicable NEC or equipment manufacturer lockout/tagout procedures before accessing internal panels or enclosures. Do not overtighten into threaded plastic or thin sheet metal; verify that the mating tapped hole or nut is rated for 4-40 engagement. Inspect threads for damage before installation to ensure proper seating and torque retention.
