Value Collection MSCI-1000500-100BX Machine Screw 10-24

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSCI-1000500-100BX is a 10-24 UNC machine screw with a fillister head and slotted drive, sold in a box of 100. The fastener measures 0.5 inches in length under the head and is manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plating finish for basic corrosion resistance. The fillister head profile sits tall and narrow, making it well-suited for counterbored holes where a low-profile pan head would not seat properly. These screws are commonly installed by maintenance technicians, electricians, HVAC service professionals, and general tradespeople working on equipment assemblies, enclosures, and panel hardware.

This machine screw is a standard inch-series fastener designed for use in threaded through-holes or pre-tapped components requiring a 10-24 UNC thread engagement. Typical applications include securing electrical enclosure covers, control panel sub-assemblies, junction box hardware, and light-duty mechanical fixtures. The slotted drive accepts a standard flat-blade screwdriver, making it accessible in confined spaces where a hex or Phillips driver may not fit. The box quantity of 100 suits both service-call stock and shop inventory replenishment.

Key Features

• 10-24 UNC thread form for standard inch-series tapped holes
• Fillister head profile seats cleanly in counterbored applications
• Slotted drive compatible with flat-blade screwdrivers in tight spaces
• Grade 2 steel construction provides adequate strength for light-to-medium duty fastening
• Zinc-plated finish for basic oxidation resistance in indoor service environments
• Sold in a box of 100 for efficient stocking and field use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or stocking fastener for any application requiring a 10-24 UNC, 0.5-inch fillister head slotted machine screw in inch-series threaded assemblies.

Installation Notes

Install using a flat-blade screwdriver sized to match the slot width to avoid cam-out and head damage. Verify the receiving hole is tapped to 10-24 UNC before installation. Do not overtighten Grade 2 fasteners in soft substrates such as aluminum or thermoplastic housings, as thread stripping can occur without significant torque feedback. Power down or de-energize any electrical enclosure before accessing internal hardware per applicable NEC guidelines.
