Value Collection MSTI-1000870-100BX 10-24 Truss Head Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSTI-1000870-100BX is a 10-24 x 7/8-inch truss head machine screw with a slotted drive, manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish. The truss head profile provides a wide, low-profile bearing surface that distributes clamping load across a larger area compared to standard pan or round heads. The zinc plating offers basic corrosion resistance suitable for indoor and light-duty applications. Each box contains 100 pieces, making this a practical bulk option for assembly work, maintenance shops, and trade contractors who regularly stock fasteners. Compliance with ASME B18.6.3 ensures dimensional consistency across the lot.

These machine screws are suited for light structural and general-purpose assembly in residential and commercial settings. Typical applications include securing electrical enclosures, HVAC panels, junction boxes, sheet metal assemblies, and general equipment mounting where a 10-24 thread is specified. The slotted drive is compatible with standard flathead screwdrivers, making them accessible for field service without specialty tooling. Length is measured under the head per standard ASME convention, giving installers a reliable reference for thread engagement depth.

Key Features

• 10-24 unified coarse thread for broad compatibility with standard tapped holes and nuts
• Truss head design provides a wide bearing surface and low-profile head clearance
• Slotted drive accepts standard flathead screwdrivers — no specialty bits required
• Grade 2 steel construction meets ASME B18.6.3 dimensional standards
• Zinc-plated finish provides basic corrosion resistance for indoor and light-duty use
• Box of 100 pieces supports bulk stocking for service vehicles, shops, and panel assembly

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose replacement or stock fastener for any application requiring a 10-24 x 7/8-inch truss head slotted machine screw meeting ASME B18.6.3 dimensional standards.

Installation Notes

Machine screws in this size are typically installed by electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and general maintenance personnel. Ensure the mating hole or nut is tapped for 10-24 threads before installation. Use appropriate torque for the application to avoid stripping the slotted drive or over-compressing the mating material — do not overtighten in thin sheet metal or plastic substrates. When used in electrical enclosures, follow applicable NEC requirements for panel assembly and grounding integrity.
