Value Collection MS51958-59B 10-32 Pan Head Phillips Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MS51958-59B is a 10-32 pan head machine screw designed for secure fastening in metal assemblies and precision applications. It features a Phillips drive and a length under head of 0.25 inches. Constructed from 18-8 stainless steel with a black oxide finish, it delivers corrosion resistance alongside a darkened appearance that reduces light reflection in finished assemblies. This screw conforms to the MS51958 fastener standard, making it a reliable choice for military-spec, industrial, and commercial mechanical applications. Sold in minimum quantities of 100 per order.

This screw is suited for light-duty fastening tasks where a compact 10-32 thread profile is required. Common applications include panel mounting, instrument enclosures, electronic assemblies, and equipment housings where a flush-fitting pan head profile is needed. The black oxide finish is appropriate for indoor and controlled-environment installations where mild corrosion resistance and a non-reflective surface are priorities. Tradespeople in electrical, mechanical, and light manufacturing work will encounter this fastener frequently in control panels and junction boxes.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-service fastener for any assembly requiring a 10-32 threaded pan head machine screw with a 0.25 inch length under head per the MS51958 fastener standard.

Installation Notes

Install using a Phillips screwdriver or appropriate power driver set to a controlled torque to avoid stripping the 10-32 thread. Ensure the receiving hole is correctly tapped to 10-32 before installation. When working in electrical enclosures or control panels, de-energize all circuits and follow applicable NEC guidelines before performing any fastener work. Do not substitute this screw in structural load-bearing applications without verifying the required fastener grade.
