Value Collection R63063246 8-32 Flat Head Phillips Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63063246 is an 8-32 x 1-1/2 inch flat head Phillips machine screw manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish. This UNC-threaded fastener features a countersunk flat head profile designed to sit flush with or below the mating surface when installed into a properly chamfered hole. At 1-1/2 inches overall length, it suits a wide range of light-duty mechanical assembly applications. The 18-8 stainless steel construction provides solid corrosion resistance in mildly wet or outdoor environments without requiring additional surface treatment. Trade professionals and maintenance technicians reach for this screw when a clean, flush-mount fastener is needed in sheet metal, plastic panels, or equipment enclosures.

This fastener is a standard inch-system machine screw suitable for residential, commercial, and light industrial assembly work. Common install scenarios include securing electrical enclosure panels, HVAC cabinet components, plumbing access covers, pool equipment housings, and general equipment assembly where a flush fastener head is required. No washer is used with this screw. It is sold individually but subject to a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per order, making it appropriate for stocking or batch-repair work rather than single-unit use.

Key Features

• 8-32 UNC thread form for compatibility with standard inch-system tapped holes and hex nuts
• Flat countersunk head sits flush with the surface when installed in a properly countersunk hole
• Phillips drive accepts standard Phillips screwdrivers and bits, No. 2 drive size typical for this thread
• 18-8 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in moist or mildly corrosive environments
• Bright uncoated finish maintains dimensional accuracy and does not add coating buildup to threads
• Overall length of 1-1/2 inches measured from tip to top of head

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 8-32 UNC inch-series machine screw for use wherever an 8-32 tapped hole, clearance hole, or hex nut is specified in light mechanical, electrical, or enclosure assembly applications.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a properly countersunk or chamfered hole to achieve a flush head seating for a flat head screw. Use a No. 2 Phillips screwdriver or bit and apply steady, centered pressure to avoid cam-out and thread damage. For installations in electrical enclosures or panels, de-energize all circuits before fastener work per applicable NEC guidelines. Do not overtighten into plastic or thin sheet materials to avoid stripping the tapped hole.
