Tornado Screw Phillips Pan Head #10-24 x 1-1/4″ Stainless 19205

A pan head is the general-purpose machine screw head: slightly domed, with a flat underside that bears squarely on the surface. Part number 19205 is the genuine OEM Phillips pan head machine screw, #10-24 by 1-1/4 inch, in stainless.

This part is shared across a wide run of machines. On the Marathon 1200 family it is fitted to:

• Tornado 98168 12 Gallon Self Contained Carpet Extractor
• Tornado 98168 20″ Marathon 1200 Carpet Extractor (12 Gallon, 115V) — all series
• Tornado 98169 20″ Marathon 1200 Carpet Extractor (12 Gallon, 230V)
• Fits many other machines — call 763-535-0770 and we will confirm fitment for your machine.

Note the thread: #10-24 coarse. This machine also uses #10-32 fine in the same nominal size, and a coarse screw will start in a fine hole, turn, feel like it is engaging, and cut its way in. The thread is destroyed in the first few turns. If a screw in this size feels gritty going in rather than smooth, stop and count the turns per inch against a known-good one.

The flat bearing face under a pan head is what makes it right for machine screws. It seats squarely without needing a countersink and without the wide footprint of a truss head. Substituting a countersunk screw here leaves the head perched on the edge of a plain hole with almost no contact area.

Stainless is the right choice in this environment and brings the usual caution about galling: start the screw by hand and let it seat before applying torque. Do not run it down with a power driver.

The Phillips recess cams out at high torque by design. That protects the thread and chews the recess if you keep pushing, so use a driver that fills the recess and stop when the joint is firm. At 1-1/4 inches this screw passes through more than one part, so start it carefully — a crooked start is harder to feel on a long screw.

Inspect before reusing: a rounded recess, dulled thread crests or a stretched section under the head all mean it should be replaced rather than refitted.

Frequently Asked Questions

What machines does the screw 19205 fit?

It is fitted to the Tornado 98168 12 Gallon Self Contained carpet extractor and the 98168 20″ Marathon 1200 in all series, and it is shared across many other machines. Call 763-535-0770 with your model and serial number and we will confirm fitment before you order.

Is this the coarse or the fine thread?

Coarse — #10-24. The machine also uses #10-32 fine in the same nominal size, and a coarse screw will start in a fine hole, turn, feel like it is engaging and cut its way in, destroying the thread in the first few turns. A screw that goes in gritty rather than smooth in this size is usually the wrong thread.

Why a pan head rather than a countersunk one?

Because a pan head has a flat underside that bears squarely on the surface without needing a countersink. Substituting a countersunk screw in a plain hole leaves the head perched on the edge with almost no contact area, so the joint clamps on a knife edge rather than a face.
