Value Collection R52000936 Thread Cutting Screw 10-24

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R52000936 is a 10-24 UNC thread cutting screw designed for creating mating threads in materials that lack pre-tapped holes. Built from AISI 1016 steel with a zinc-plated finish, this flat head screw features a Type F point and a No. 2 Phillips drive. At 5/8 inch overall length, it is sized for light-gauge sheet metal, plastics, and similar fastening applications where a self-threading fastener is required. The zinc plating provides basic corrosion resistance for general indoor use. Installation is fast and does not require a pre-tapped receiving hole, making it a practical choice for production assembly and maintenance work alike.

This screw is suited for use in HVAC panel assembly, electrical enclosure fabrication, light sheet metal work, and general mechanical assembly where a 10-24 thread cutting fastener is specified. The flat head profile seats flush with or slightly below the material surface, which is preferred when clearance is tight or a smooth finish is required. Sold in a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per package, it is appropriate for shop stock and repetitive assembly tasks.

Key Features

• Type F point cuts threads on installation, eliminating the need for a pre-tapped hole
• Flat head profile allows flush or countersunk seating
• No. 2 Phillips drive compatible with standard power and hand drivers
• Zinc-plated AISI 1016 steel construction for general indoor corrosion resistance
• Meets ASME B18.6.3, ASME B18.6.4, and SAE J933 standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or shop-stock fastener for applications requiring a 10-24 UNC thread cutting screw with a flat head and Type F point in light-gauge materials.

Installation Notes

Installed by maintenance technicians, HVAC sheet metal workers, and electrical panel assemblers using a No. 2 Phillips bit and a standard power or hand driver. Ensure the pilot hole diameter is appropriate for the material thickness and the 10-24 thread specification before driving. Do not overtorque, as thread cutting screws can strip the newly formed threads in softer base materials. Follow applicable ASME fastener standards and manufacturer assembly guidelines for the host assembly.
