Holo-krome 06036 Allen Nut 6-32 Uncoated Steel

Product Description

The HOLO-KROME 06036 is an uncoated steel Allen nut threaded to a 6-32 specification, driven with a 5/32 inch hex key. Allen nuts, also called socket nuts or recessed hex nuts, allow fastening in tight clearance applications where a standard wrench cannot access the flats. The 6-32 thread is a coarse machine screw thread commonly found in light-duty electrical enclosures, panel assemblies, and equipment mounting applications. The uncoated steel construction provides baseline mechanical strength suitable for interior and controlled-environment installations where corrosion exposure is minimal.

This fastener fits applications across electrical, HVAC, and light mechanical assembly work. It is well suited for securing components inside control panels, junction boxes, and equipment chassis where low-profile or recessed drive fasteners are required. Electricians and HVAC technicians commonly use 6-32 hardware when assembling or servicing control boards, terminal strips, and enclosure hardware. The hex key drive allows torque application in confined spaces without the need for a wrench or socket.

Key Features

• 6-32 thread size for compatibility with standard machine screw assemblies
• 5/32 inch hex key drive allows installation in restricted-access locations
• Uncoated steel construction for reliable mechanical fastening in dry, interior environments
• Recessed Allen drive reduces fastener profile in finished assemblies
• Minimum order quantity of 5 units supports small repair and replacement jobs

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 6-32 threaded Allen nut for use in electrical enclosures, control panels, HVAC equipment chassis, and general light mechanical assemblies requiring a recessed hex drive fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a 5/32 inch hex key or Allen wrench. Always de-energize electrical equipment and follow applicable NEC requirements before working inside panels or enclosures. Do not overtighten into thin sheet metal or plastic-threaded inserts, as 6-32 threads are fine enough to strip under excess torque. Inspect mating threads for damage before fastening to ensure proper engagement.
