Value Collection MS51958-60B 10-32 Pan Head Phillips Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MS51958-60B is a 10-32 x 5/16-inch pan head machine screw designed for secure, precise fastening in mechanical and structural assemblies. Manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with a black oxide finish, this fastener offers corrosion resistance combined with a darkened appearance that reduces light reflection. The Phillips drive accommodates standard and powered drivers, making installation efficient in production or field environments. At 5/16 inch length under head, this screw is suited for tight-clearance applications where a compact fastener is required. Licensed trade professionals, maintenance technicians, and production assemblers commonly specify this fastener type.

This screw is used in light mechanical assemblies, electrical enclosures, panel mounting, and equipment fabrication where a compact 10-32 threaded fastener is specified. The pan head profile provides a low-profile bearing surface without a washer. The black oxide finish is appropriate for indoor or controlled-environment applications. Conforming to the MS51958 fastener standard, this screw is a common specification in mil-spec-influenced and industrial assembly work. Minimum order quantity is 100 pieces per package.

Installation Notes

Install using a Phillips screwdriver or powered Phillips bit driver matched to the screw size to avoid cam-out damage to the drive recess. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before driving. When used in electrical panels or enclosures, power down the assembly per applicable NEC requirements before fastener work. Do not overtighten stainless steel fasteners into stainless threaded inserts without anti-galling compound, as galling can seize the fastener.
