Value Collection R56001962 Flat Head Phillips Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R56001962 is a 3/8-16 UNC flat head Phillips machine screw manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish. It measures 3/4 inches in overall length, with the full 3/4 inches measured under the head. The flat head profile sits flush with or below the surface of the mating material when countersunk, making it suitable for applications where a smooth, flush surface is required. The Phillips drive allows installation with standard Phillips screwdrivers or power bits. Grade 316 stainless provides elevated corrosion resistance compared to Grade 304, particularly in chloride-rich or marine environments.

This screw is used across a wide range of trade and industrial applications where corrosion resistance and a flush-mount fastener are required. Typical installations include HVAC equipment panels, enclosures, plumbing fixtures, pool and spa equipment, and marine hardware. The 3/8-16 UNC thread is a coarse-thread specification common in general mechanical assemblies. This fastener is appropriate for use by HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and general maintenance professionals working in corrosive or wet environments.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 3/8-16 UNC flat head Phillips machine screw suitable for use in any application accepting this thread size, head style, and drive type in stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Install using a properly sized Phillips screwdriver or driver bit to avoid cam-out and head damage. A countersink must be prepared in the mating material to allow the flat head to seat flush. Do not overtighten stainless fasteners, as galling can occur — application of an anti-seize compound is recommended when threading into stainless or aluminum. Power down or de-energize any equipment before accessing fasteners on electrical enclosures or HVAC panels.
