APC HC0235 #10-24 x 0.88″ 18-8 S/S PHPHS

The APC HC0235 #10-24 x 0.88″ 18-8 Stainless Steel Pan Head Phillips Machine Screw is a precision-engineered fastener designed for superior reliability, corrosion resistance, and long-lasting performance in a wide variety of mechanical and structural applications. Manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel, this screw combines strength and durability with a high level of resistance to oxidation and rust, making it an ideal choice for environments where moisture, humidity, or chemical exposure are concerns. Its #10-24 thread size ensures a secure and tight fit in compatible pre-tapped holes or when used with a matching nut, providing consistent torque and holding power for mechanical assemblies, equipment enclosures, or panel fastening systems.

The 0.88-inch length makes it suitable for medium-depth fastening applications that require strong holding power without excessive projection. The pan head design features a broad, rounded top and a large bearing surface, distributing the load evenly across the fastened material. This reduces the risk of damage or indentation on delicate surfaces such as plastics, aluminum, or thin-gauge sheet metal. The Phillips drive provides excellent torque transmission and allows for easy installation using standard screwdrivers or power drivers. This drive type also minimizes the risk of slippage or cam-out, ensuring the screw seats properly without damaging the head or the tool.

Constructed from 18-8 stainless steel, which typically contains around 18% chromium and 8% nickel, the APC HC0235 offers exceptional resistance to corrosion in both indoor and outdoor environments. It performs well in marine, industrial, and food processing settings where exposure to moisture or corrosive agents is common. The material’s non-magnetic and high-tensile characteristics make it ideal for applications that require both mechanical strength and aesthetic appeal. The bright, smooth finish of the stainless steel enhances the professional appearance of the assembly, ensuring the fastener not only performs well but also looks clean and polished after installation.

This machine screw is frequently used across industries including electronics, electrical panel manufacturing, HVAC systems, furniture assembly, automotive repair, machinery construction, and appliance manufacturing. It is suitable for joining metal components, fastening electrical covers, attaching brackets, mounting hardware, and assembling modular systems where consistent performance is critical.

Installation is straightforward — the Phillips pan head design allows easy alignment of the driver bit, ensuring quick and efficient fastening. Its wide head surface is perfect for attaching flat components, brackets, or faceplates without the need for washers in many cases. The screw threads are cut precisely to ensure uniform engagement, reducing friction during assembly and allowing consistent tightening torque.

Automatic Pool Covers, Inc. took its first steps into the industry in 1979 as a small pool cover distributor. They continued to grow exponentially into the millennium, becoming a leader of the cover distributor industry. As continued to grow, they began to use their vast knowledge of the industry to develop and experiment with their own designs with the hope of making the most efficient, convenient and sturdy product.
