Value Collection MS35206-207 Machine Screw 2-56 X 1/2 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MS35206-207 is a 2-56 pan head machine screw manufactured to MS35206 fastener standard. It features a Phillips drive and is produced from steel with a yellow cadmium finish for corrosion resistance. The screw measures 1/2 inch in length under the head and is supplied without a washer. Grade 3 construction meets the dimensional and material requirements of the military specification series. These screws are used by electricians, HVAC technicians, equipment assemblers, and maintenance professionals working with light-gauge metal panels, electrical enclosures, and instrument assemblies where a small-diameter threaded fastener is required.

This screw is suited for light-duty fastening applications in control panels, electrical junction boxes, HVAC equipment covers, and instrumentation housings. The 2-56 thread size is a fine-pitch inch-series thread commonly found in electronic and electromechanical equipment. The yellow cadmium finish provides a degree of corrosion and oxidation resistance appropriate for indoor and protected environments. These screws are sold with a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per order, making them appropriate for service shops, panel builders, and facilities maintenance teams that consume fasteners in volume.

Key Features

• 2-56 thread size with 1/2 inch length under head for consistent engagement in light sheet metal and tapped components
• Pan head profile distributes clamping load over a wider bearing surface than flat or oval head styles
• Phillips drive is compatible with standard power and hand screwdrivers common in trade and shop environments
• Yellow cadmium finish provides corrosion resistance in protected indoor applications
• Manufactured to MS35206 fastener standard for dimensional consistency and interchangeability
• Grade 3 steel construction balances strength and machinability for general fastening use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fastener for equipment requiring MS35206-series 2-56 pan head Phillips machine screws in inch-measurement systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hand or power screwdriver with a Phillips bit sized for a number 2-56 screw. Always verify that the receiving thread is clean and free of debris before driving to avoid cross-threading. Do not overtighten small-diameter machine screws, as stripping the threads in thin sheet metal or tapped inserts is a common failure point. Follow applicable equipment manufacturer torque guidance where provided in the service documentation.
