Stop delaying repairs with off-the-shelf fasteners that fail under repeated use. This precision screw delivers consistent thread engagement and controlled clamping in repair and assembly tasks, supporting maintenance teams and fabrication crews with reliable performance across frequent service cycles. Parts professionals benefit from a compact size that fits confined assemblies while providing predictable torque response for routine tightening operations.
LongDescription#@#NA#@@#Cleaning Instructions#@#Clean high-touch zones like menu covers, salt/pepper shakers, chair backs, and bathroom door handles daily to prevent germ transfer. Use a neutral detergent for initial cleaning, then apply an EPA-registered sanitizer per label; allow recommended contact time. Wipe wooden or vinyl furniture with a damp cloth and mild soap; dry immediately to prevent staining. Inspect edges and crevices for crumbs and remove to deter pests and maintain compliance with health codes.#@@#Additional Info#@#PartsTown GM86914 screw, 8-32 x 3/8" slotted oval head, features corrosion-resistant steel, 0.45" length, 0.25" width for secure fastening in kitchen equipment, weighs 0.01 pounds, meets CSA standards, and ships ready for service.#@@#General Info#@#Description #@#
Stop delaying repairs with off-the-shelf fasteners that fail under repeated use.

#@@# Screw Dimensions#@#
Measure accuracy drives compatibility. The screw measures 0.45 inches in length with an 8-32 thread designation, enabling secure mating with standard tapped holes and nuts common in commercial kitchen equipment and small appliance assemblies. Technicians gain repeatable fitment with minimal adjustment during installation.
#@@# Head Profile#@#
Oval head geometry reduces protrusion while offering ample bearing surface under a mating part. Installers maintain flush mounting where a slightly domed finish improves load distribution and minimizes catch points in narrow channels.
#@@# Drive Style#@#
Slotted drive provides straightforward engagement with common hand tools and reduces tool inventory needs. Maintenance crews complete quick replacements with standard screwdrivers, lowering downtime during service windows.
#@@# Material Specification#@#
Manufactured from machinable steel with a medium surface finish, the part balances strength with cost efficiency for non-structural fastening applications. Shop personnel select this screw when magnetic retention and predictable shear capacity match service requirements.
#@@# Thread Performance#@#
Machine screw threads follow a unified 8-32 form for consistent pitch and controlled axial clamping force. Engineers rely on the thread form to resist loosening under vibration when combined with proper torque and chosen retaining methods.
