Value Collection R51091097 10-24 X 0.5 in Round Head Slotted Brass

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R51091097 is a 10-24 x 0.5-inch round head slotted machine screw manufactured from brass. Conforming to ASME B18.6.3, this fastener is suited for applications requiring corrosion resistance, electrical conductivity, or non-magnetic properties. The slotted drive accepts a standard flat-blade screwdriver. Length measurement is taken under the head, putting the full 0.5-inch engagement length into the mating material. These screws are ordered in multiples of 100 units, making them a practical choice for assembly shops, service technicians, and contractors who consume fasteners in volume.

This screw is used in a wide range of light-duty mechanical assemblies, electrical enclosures, HVAC equipment panels, plumbing fixture trim, and instrumentation housings where a brass fastener is specified for corrosion resistance or compatibility with dissimilar metals. The round head profile provides a low-profile bearing surface without requiring a countersunk hole. It is well suited for residential and light commercial equipment service work as well as production assembly environments.

Key Features

• 10-24 unified coarse thread for reliable engagement in standard tapped holes
• Round head geometry distributes clamping load without countersinking
• Slotted drive compatible with standard flat-blade screwdrivers
• Brass construction offers corrosion resistance and non-magnetic properties
• Meets ASME B18.6.3 dimensional standard for consistent fitment
• No washer — length under head equals full 0.5 inches of thread engagement

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 10-24 machine screw for use in any tapped or threaded insert hole conforming to the 10-24 unified coarse thread specification per ASME B18.6.3.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a flat-blade screwdriver sized to the slotted head. Verify the mating hole is tapped to 10-24 UNC before driving. Brass is softer than steel — avoid power tools set at high torque to prevent head damage or thread stripping. When installing in electrical enclosures, follow applicable NEC requirements for fastener access and panel integrity.
