Value Collection R63068848 4-40 Machine Screw Pan Head Slotted

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63068848 is a 4-40 UNC pan head machine screw designed for light-duty fastening applications across industrial, mechanical, and electrical assemblies. Manufactured from Grade 18-8 stainless steel with a bright uncoated finish, this screw offers solid corrosion resistance for indoor and moderate outdoor environments. The 3/16-inch length is measured under the head, making it a reliable choice for thin-stock fastening where minimal protrusion is required. The slotted drive accommodates a standard flat-blade screwdriver, keeping tooling requirements simple. This fastener is sold in minimum quantities of 100 units per order.

This screw is suited for use in control panels, HVAC equipment enclosures, electrical junction boxes, plumbing fixture assemblies, and other light-gauge metal or plastic substrates that require a small-diameter threaded fastener. The 4-40 thread size is a common standard in precision mechanical assemblies and equipment manufactured to inch-series dimensions. Technicians working on terminal boards, fan housings, or access panel hardware will find this screw a practical replacement or stock fastener.

Key Features

• Grade 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in moderate environments
• 4-40 UNC thread form compatible with standard inch-series tapped holes
• Pan head profile distributes clamping load across a wider bearing surface
• Slotted drive works with standard flat-blade screwdrivers
• Bright uncoated finish with no additional plating that could alter thread tolerance
• 3/16-inch length under head suits thin-stock and shallow-clearance applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series machine screw for use in any application requiring a 4-40 UNC thread, pan head profile, and 3/16-inch length under head.

Installation Notes

Installation does not require specialized tooling beyond a flat-blade screwdriver sized to the slot width. Always de-energize equipment and follow applicable lockout-tagout procedures before accessing any panel or enclosure for fastener service. Do not overtighten stainless steel fasteners into stainless tapped holes, as galling can occur; apply a small amount of anti-seize compound if thread binding is a concern. Confirm that the mating tapped hole is clean and free of debris before driving the screw.
