APC Oval Head Phillips Screw #10-24 x 1.25″ MS, 18-8 S
The APC Oval Head Phillips Screw #10-24 x 1.25″ MS, crafted from high-quality 18-8 stainless steel, is engineered to deliver outstanding performance, strong corrosion resistance, and long-term durability across a wide range of mechanical, industrial, and structural applications. Designed with meticulous attention to manufacturing precision, this screw combines versatility and reliability, making it a dependable component for professionals, technicians, builders, and hobbyists who demand consistent fastening strength and resistance to environmental wear. The 18-8 stainless steel composition (which includes high levels of chromium and nickel) ensures exceptional protection against rust, oxidation, and chemical exposure when used indoors or outdoors, even in moisture-rich or moderately corrosive environments.
Featuring a #10-24 Unified National Coarse (UNC) thread size, this screw has 24 threads per inch, providing a secure and reliable engagement with compatible nuts, threaded holes, and inserts. The precise threading helps reduce stripping and cross-threading, ensuring a clean, dependable connection every time it is installed. Its length of 1.25 inches offers versatility across different materials such as sheet metal, plastics, wood, electronic housings, machinery components, and mounting brackets. The screw is long enough to provide deep penetration and firm holding strength while still being manageable for delicate assembly work.
The oval head design is one of the key features that sets this screw apart. An oval head combines the structural benefits of both flat and round head screws. It offers a clean, slightly domed surface that provides a more refined and decorative appearance once fully seated, making it an excellent choice for installations where visual presentation matters. This includes applications such as control panels, equipment casings, architectural components, and finished assemblies.
The screw is equipped with a Phillips drive, one of the most widely recognized and universally compatible drive types. The Phillips recess promotes better torque distribution, reduces the chance of driver slippage, and enables quick, efficient installation using hand tools or power-driven screwdrivers. The cross-shaped recess is also self-centering, making alignment easy and reducing user fatigue during repeated installations. Whether used in field repairs or production settings, the Phillips drive remains a dependable choice for consistent performance.
The APC Oval Head Phillips Screw #10-24 x 1.25″ is also valued for its versatility in installations requiring repeated assembly and disassembly. Stainless steel’s inherent resistance to galling makes it suitable for mechanical interfaces that may be loosened or tightened more than once. This characteristic is particularly useful in maintenance-heavy environments, laboratory settings, mechanical prototypes, electronic assemblies, and equipment undergoing regular servicing.
