Value Collection R52000928 Machine Screw 10-24 X 3/8 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R52000928 is a 10-24 pan head Phillips machine screw designed for general-purpose fastening applications across a wide range of industries and trades. Manufactured from steel with a zinc-plated finish, this screw meets ASME B18.13a and SAE J82 standards, confirming dimensional accuracy and material grade compliance. The pan head profile provides a wide, low-profile bearing surface that distributes clamping load evenly, while the Phillips drive allows for efficient installation with standard hand or power tools. At 3/8 inches in length measured under the head, this fastener suits light-gauge material assemblies where a compact, secure connection is required.

This screw is suited for residential and commercial applications involving light steel fabrication, electrical enclosures, HVAC equipment panels, and general mechanical assemblies. The external tooth washer style integral to this fastener provides added resistance to loosening under vibration, making it a practical choice for mechanical and electrical enclosure work where joint integrity matters. Tradespeople across HVAC, electrical, and light mechanical disciplines commonly use this size and drive combination for panel work and equipment assembly.

Key Features

• 10-24 thread size for broad compatibility with standard tapped holes and threaded inserts
• Pan head with Phillips drive for fast installation using common hand and power screwdrivers
• Zinc-plated steel construction provides corrosion resistance suitable for indoor and light-duty applications
• External tooth washer style helps resist loosening caused by vibration in mechanical assemblies
• Meets ASME B18.13a and SAE J82 standards for dimensional and material grade consistency
• Length measured under head: 3/8 inches, suited for light-gauge panel and enclosure fastening

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or stock fastener for any application requiring a 10-24 thread, 3/8-inch pan head Phillips machine screw conforming to ASME B18.13a and SAE J82 specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hand or with a standard Phillips screwdriver or power driver set to an appropriate clutch setting to avoid stripping the pan head drive. Ensure mating threads are clean and properly tapped to the 10-24 specification before driving. When used in electrical enclosures, follow applicable NEC guidelines for fastener use and panel integrity. Do not overtorque, as zinc-plated steel screws at this size can be susceptible to thread damage if excessive force is applied.
