Built from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish, it provides basic corrosion resistance suitable for indoor and light-duty environments. The slotted drive accepts a standard flat-blade screwdriver or power bit. The truss head features a low-profile, wide-diameter bearing surface that distributes clamping load across a broader area than a standard pan or round head, making it useful when fastening into softer substrates or oversized holes. Thread is Unified National Coarse (UNC), 3\/8-16, which is a common size in structural and mechanical assemblies. Length is measured under the head at 1 inch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese screws are suited for light structural, electrical enclosure, HVAC panel, and general mechanical assembly work. The UNC thread form is widely used in American standard fastening applications across residential and commercial construction, equipment manufacturing, and trade service work. The zinc plating meets basic requirements for dry or sheltered installations. This item is sold in a minimum order quantity of 50 pieces per box, making it practical for both job-site stock and shop inventory.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/8-16 UNC thread for broad compatibility with standard American fastener hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTruss head profile provides a wide, low-profile bearing surface for load distribution\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlotted drive works with flat-blade screwdrivers and standard power bits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZinc-plated finish offers basic corrosion resistance for sheltered applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrade 2 steel construction suitable for general-purpose mechanical fastening\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold in a box of 50 pieces to support production and field inventory needs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose UNC machine screw for use in standard 3\/8-16 tapped holes or with matching hex nuts and washers in mechanical, electrical, and HVAC assembly applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by any trade technician or assembler working with standard threaded fasteners. Always ensure the mating thread or nut matches the 3\/8-16 UNC specification before installation. De-energize any electrical equipment before fastening panels or enclosures. Do not overtighten into soft materials or thin sheet metal, as the Grade 2 rating is not intended for high-torque structural applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8-16 UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Under Head\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Truss\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Slotted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Grade 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish Coating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Zinc-Plated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWasher Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Without Washer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSystem of Measurement\u003c\/strong\u003e: Inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 50 pieces per box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31161504\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: MSTI03701000-050BX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51690857267506,"sku":"MSTI03701000-050BX","price":26514.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d9ea72fc23334d9fd028272f6fe59399.jpg?v=1788276390","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-msti03701000-050bx-truss-head-machine-screw","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
