Value Collection R50000279 Machine Screw 10-24 X 2.5 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R50000279 is a 10-24 unified national coarse (UNC) thread machine screw with a round head and slotted drive, manufactured from alloy steel with a zinc-plated finish. At 2.5 inches in length under head, this fastener delivers corrosion resistance and mechanical strength suited to general-purpose metal assembly work. The zinc plating provides a protective barrier against rust and oxidation in typical indoor and light industrial environments. This screw ships in multiples of 100, making it appropriate for production assembly, maintenance shops, and field service kits where consistent hardware inventory is essential.

This screw is used across a broad range of trade and light industrial applications, including HVAC equipment panel assembly, electrical enclosure mounting, plumbing fixture attachment, and general mechanical assembly where a 10-24 UNC threaded fastener with a round slotted head is specified. The slotted drive is compatible with standard flat-blade screwdrivers, making it accessible with common hand and power tools found in any trade kit.

Key Features

• 10-24 UNC thread form for compatibility with standard tapped holes and hex nuts
• Round head profile distributes clamping load and sits flush to surrounding material surfaces
• Slotted drive accommodates flat-blade screwdrivers and standard bit tips
• Alloy steel construction provides tensile strength for mechanical fastening applications
• Zinc-plated finish offers corrosion resistance in typical indoor environments
• Sold in minimum order quantities of 100 for bulk use in production or service settings

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose 10-24 UNC machine screw for use in any application requiring a round head slotted fastener of this thread size and length.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a flat-blade screwdriver or compatible slotted bit. Always match the screw thread to the correct tapped hole or nut specification before driving to avoid cross-threading. De-energize and lock out any electrical or mechanical equipment before installing or removing fasteners in or near live panels or moving assemblies. Do not overtighten alloy steel screws into softer base materials such as aluminum or plastic without appropriate thread inserts.
