Value Collection MS51958-69 Machine Screw 10-32 X 1.5 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MS51958-69 is a 10-32 pan head Phillips machine screw conforming to the MS51958 military fastener standard. Manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with a black oxide finish, it measures 1.5 inches under the head and uses a standard #10-32 UNF thread form. The pan head profile offers a low-profile bearing surface suitable for sheet metal, enclosures, and panel assemblies. The black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance while reducing surface glare. This screw is used across mechanical, electrical, and HVAC panel applications where a corrosion-resistant, standardized fastener is required. Installation typically requires a Phillips No. 2 driver bit.

This fastener is suited for light-gauge sheet metal, electrical enclosures, control panels, equipment housings, and general mechanical assemblies where a #10-32 thread is specified. It is commonly installed by HVAC technicians, electricians, and general mechanical trades during panel assembly, equipment mounting, and cover fastening. The MS51958 military standard designation makes it a common specification in government, aerospace-adjacent, and commercial equipment service. Minimum order quantity is 100 pieces per package.

Key Features

• 10-32 UNF thread form for compatibility with standard #10-32 tapped holes and hardware
• Pan head profile provides a broad bearing surface and flush-friendly seating on flat panels
• Phillips drive (No. 2 bit) for fast installation with common hand and power tools
• 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in indoor and mild-environment applications
• Black oxide finish reduces surface glare and adds a layer of mild corrosion protection
• Conforms to MS51958 military fastener standard for consistent dimensional tolerance

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit replacement or specification fastener for any application requiring a 10-32 UNF pan head Phillips machine screw with 1.5-inch length under head, conforming to the MS51958 standard.

Installation Notes

Install using a Phillips No. 2 driver bit; use of the correct bit size prevents cam-out and protects the drive recess. Ensure the mating hole or nut is tapped to 10-32 UNF before installation. Do not over-torque stainless steel fasteners, as the material is susceptible to galling. Verify panel or enclosure power is off before accessing any electrical assembly containing these fasteners.
