Value Collection R52001073 Flat Head Phillips Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R52001073 is a 1/4-20 flat head Phillips machine screw designed for general-purpose mechanical fastening in metal, wood, and composite assemblies. Manufactured from steel with a zinc-plated finish for corrosion resistance, this screw measures 2.5 inches in overall length and conforms to ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 standards. The flat head profile sits flush with or below the mating surface, making it well-suited for applications where a smooth, low-profile finish is required. Electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and general maintenance professionals use this type of fastener when assembling panels, brackets, and enclosures.

This screw is appropriate for light to medium-duty mechanical assemblies in both residential and commercial settings. Typical applications include mounting electrical enclosure components, securing HVAC cabinet panels, attaching pipe support brackets, and general equipment assembly. The 1/4-20 thread form is one of the most common unified coarse-thread sizes, making this fastener compatible with a wide range of tapped holes and hex nuts in standard inch-measurement hardware assemblies. This SKU is sold in a single package with a minimum order quantity of 50 units.

Key Features

• 1/4-20 unified coarse thread for broad compatibility with standard inch-measurement hardware
• 2.5-inch overall length with full-length thread measurement under head
• Flat head profile for flush or countersunk installations
• Phillips drive for quick installation with standard bit drivers
• Zinc-plated steel finish provides basic corrosion resistance for indoor and sheltered applications
• Meets ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 dimensional and material standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series machine screw suitable for use in any application requiring a 1/4-20 threaded fastener with a flat countersunk head and Phillips drive, including panel assemblies, equipment enclosures, and structural brackets using inch-measurement hardware.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified tradesperson or maintenance technician using a Phillips screwdriver or appropriate bit driver. Ensure the mating hole is properly tapped or uses a compatible 1/4-20 threaded insert or nut before driving the fastener. Do not overtighten, as this can strip the Phillips recess or damage the mating material. For countersunk installations, verify that the receiving material is chamfered to the correct angle to allow full flush seating of the flat head.
