Value Collection W55396PS 8-32 X 1/4 in Pan Head Phillips Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION W55396PS is a pan head machine screw designed for general fastening applications across mechanical, electrical, and industrial assembly work. Sized at 8-32 thread with a 1/4 inch length under head, this screw uses a Phillips drive and features a bright, uncoated finish. Manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel, it delivers strong corrosion resistance in wet, marine, or chemical-exposure environments. The Unified National Coarse (UNC) thread form provides reliable engagement in standard tapped holes and threaded inserts. This screw ships individually as a single piece with a minimum order quantity of 50 units.

This fastener is suited for light-duty mechanical assembly in HVAC equipment panels, electrical enclosures, plumbing access covers, and similar trade applications where a compact, corrosion-resistant fastener is required. The pan head profile provides a low-profile bearing surface and works with standard Phillips No. 2 drivers. Grade 316 stainless construction makes it appropriate for outdoor, coastal, or high-moisture service locations where carbon steel or Grade 304 stainless may not provide sufficient corrosion resistance.

Key Features

• 8-32 UNC thread for compatibility with standard tapped holes and threaded inserts
• 1/4 inch length under head for shallow panel and enclosure fastening
• Pan head geometry provides a flat, wide bearing surface without a countersink requirement
• Phillips drive accepts standard No. 2 Phillips bit or screwdriver
• Grade 316 stainless steel construction for superior corrosion resistance in wet or marine environments
• Bright, uncoated finish with no plating to introduce dimensional variation

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 8-32 UNC machine screw for use in any application requiring an 8-32 tapped hole or threaded insert with pan head clearance.

Installation Notes

Installation is appropriate for any trade technician performing panel assembly or enclosure fastening. Power down electrical equipment and de-energize circuits before accessing any electrical enclosure. Use a No. 2 Phillips screwdriver or bit driver; avoid over-torquing into thin sheet metal to prevent thread stripping. When installing in dissimilar metals in wet environments, verify galvanic compatibility to avoid accelerated corrosion of adjoining materials.
