Value Collection R52000972 Pan Head Machine Screw 10-32

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R52000972 is a 10-32 pan head Phillips machine screw designed for general-purpose fastening in light mechanical assemblies. Manufactured from steel with a zinc finish, it provides corrosion resistance suitable for indoor and light-duty applications. The screw measures 3/8 inch in length under the head and conforms to ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 standards, making it a reliable choice for technicians who need a dimensionally consistent, specification-grade fastener. This screw is commonly installed by HVAC technicians, electricians, plumbers, and general tradespeople working on control panels, equipment housings, and equipment access panels.

This machine screw is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a #10-32 unified fine thread fastener is specified. Typical uses include securing control boards, terminal blocks, sheet metal sub-assemblies, and enclosure covers. Its pan head profile provides a low-profile clamping surface and broad bearing area, which helps distribute clamping load without damaging thinner substrates. The Phillips drive allows for fast installation with standard hand or power tools. This SKU is sold in a package quantity of one with a minimum order quantity of 100 units.

Installation Notes

Install using a Phillips head screwdriver or appropriate power driver bit. De-energize any electrical equipment before fastening or removing screws on live panels or control boards, in accordance with NFPA 70E lockout/tagout procedures. Do not overtighten into thin sheet metal or plastic standoffs, as stripping of the tapped hole may result. Verify thread engagement depth is sufficient for the specified holding strength of the assembly.
