Value Collection MSCI0-800370-100BX 8-32 X 3/8 in Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSCI0-800370-100BX is a fillister head machine screw sized 8-32 x 3/8 inch length under head. It is manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc finish for basic corrosion resistance in general-purpose fastening applications. The fillister head profile features a tall, cylindrical sidewall and a flat top, providing a larger bearing surface than a pan head while maintaining a compact footprint. The slotted drive accommodates standard flathead screwdrivers. This fastener is supplied in a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per box and is sized in the inch measurement system using UNC thread standards.

This screw is suited for light-duty mechanical assembly in electrical panels, HVAC equipment enclosures, control box covers, and general sheet metal or component mounting applications. The 8-32 UNC thread is one of the most common machine screw threads found in trade-grade equipment. The zinc finish offers surface protection adequate for indoor or sheltered installations. Trade professionals including HVAC technicians, electricians, and equipment assemblers will encounter this size in OEM equipment and field repairs regularly.

Key Features

• 8-32 UNC thread for compatibility with standard tapped holes in trade equipment

• Sold in a 100-piece minimum order quantity for job-site and shop replenishment

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose 8-32 UNC machine screw for use in any application requiring a fillister head slotted fastener in this thread size and length.

Installation Notes

Installation does not require specialized tools beyond a standard flathead screwdriver or matching bit. Ensure the mating tapped hole or nut is clean and free of debris before threading to avoid cross-threading. Do not overtorque; Grade 2 steel has lower tensile strength than higher-grade fasteners and is intended for light to moderate clamping loads. Always de-energize electrical equipment before accessing internal fastener locations inside panels or control enclosures.
