Value Collection R63032244 8-32 Oval Phillips Screw Ss 18-8

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63032244 is an 8-32 x 0.375-inch oval head machine screw with a Phillips drive, manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish. The oval head profile sits flush with a low-profile contour above the surface, making it a practical choice where a finished appearance is needed. The 8-32 UNC thread pitch is a widely used coarse thread standard in light mechanical assemblies. Overall screw length and length under head are both 0.375 inches. This fastener ships in a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per package, suited for maintenance bins, production line stock, or service van supply.

This screw is used across a wide range of light-duty mechanical and enclosure applications, including HVAC equipment panels, electrical junction boxes, control panel covers, plumbing fixture trim, and general sheet metal or plastic assembly work. The 18-8 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in damp or humid environments, making it appropriate for both indoor mechanical rooms and light outdoor applications where exposure to moisture is a concern.

Key Features

• 8-32 UNC thread size — widely compatible with standard tapped holes and threaded inserts
• Oval head with Phillips drive for a flush-to-contoured surface finish
• 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in humid or wet environments
• Bright, uncoated finish — no plating to chip, flake, or react with dissimilar metals
• Overall length and under-head length both measure 0.375 inches for consistent fitment in shallow clearance applications
• Sold in multiples of 100 — suitable for stocking in bulk for service or production use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series machine screw for use in any application requiring an 8-32 UNC threaded hole with an oval head profile and Phillips drive recess.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a Phillips screwdriver or Phillips bit matched to the screw head size — typically a No. 2 Phillips for 8-32 hardware. Ensure the receiving hole is properly tapped to 8-32 UNC before driving. Do not overtighten stainless steel fasteners into stainless steel tapped holes, as galling can occur; use an appropriate anti-seize compound when threading into stainless-tapped material. Power down any equipment panel or enclosure before fastener service in accordance with NFPA 70 lockout/tagout procedures.
