Value Collection R63068283 Machine Screw 2-56 X 1/4 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63068283 is a 2-56 x 1/4 inch round head slotted machine screw manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish. It uses unified coarse thread (UNC) and is measured length-under-head. The 18-8 stainless steel construction provides solid corrosion resistance in general-purpose fastening applications. This screw ships without a washer and is sold in multiples of 100 pieces. Electricians, HVAC technicians, and equipment assemblers commonly use fasteners of this type when securing panels, brackets, and small components in control enclosures or instrument assemblies.

This fastener is suited for light-duty mechanical assembly in both residential and commercial trade environments. It is commonly used to fasten sheet metal panels, circuit board standoffs, enclosure covers, and small brackets in HVAC controls, electrical panels, and instrumentation enclosures. The slotted drive allows installation with a standard flat-blade screwdriver. The 2-56 thread size is a fine, small-diameter designation common in precision and control-system assembly work.

Key Features

• 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in general-purpose applications
• 2-56 UNC thread for use in precision and control-system fastening
• Round head profile with slotted drive for flat-blade screwdriver installation
• Bright, uncoated finish — no additional coating to affect dimensional tolerances
• No washer included; washer style is without washer
• Length measured under head at 1/4 inch for accurate fitment in shallow clearance applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series machine screw for use in any application requiring a 2-56 UNC thread. Compatible with pre-tapped 2-56 holes and standard 2-56 nuts across general mechanical, electrical, and HVAC control assembly applications.

Installation Notes

Install with a flat-blade screwdriver sized to the slot width to avoid cam-out and slot damage. De-energize all electrical equipment and follow applicable NEC guidelines before fastening components inside control enclosures. Do not overtighten small-diameter stainless steel screws, as the material is susceptible to galling under excessive torque. Inspect threads in the mating part for cleanliness and proper size before driving.
