Holo-krome 86296 Hex Socket Cap Screw 6-32 Unc

Product Description

The HOLO-KROME 86296 is a hex socket cap screw designed for secure, high-torque fastening in tight-clearance applications. Sized at 6-32 UNC with a 1.75-inch length under head and a 7/64-inch hex drive, this fastener is partially threaded and manufactured from alloy steel with a black oxide finish. It meets ASME B18.3 and ASTM A574 standards, making it appropriate for mechanical assemblies, machinery, and structural components where strength and dimensional consistency are required. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and industrial assemblers regularly specify this screw type for precision fastening tasks.

This screw is suited for use in light machinery, HVAC equipment assemblies, electrical enclosures, and general mechanical fabrication where a 6-32 UNC thread pitch and a recessed hex drive are specified. The black oxide coating provides mild corrosion resistance and a low-reflectance finish appropriate for indoor mechanical environments. The partial thread engages the mating material over a controlled length, which supports clamping load distribution in thicker workpieces.

Key Features

• 6-32 UNC thread size with 1.75-inch length under head
• 7/64-inch internal hex drive for use with standard Allen keys or hex drivers
• Partially threaded shank for controlled clamping engagement
• Alloy steel construction meets ASTM A574 mechanical requirements
• Black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance and low reflectance
• Conforms to ASME B18.3 dimensional standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit fastener for applications specifying a 6-32 UNC hex socket cap screw per ASME B18.3.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a 7/64-inch hex key or socket driver. Ensure the mating threaded hole is clean and free of debris before driving. Do not exceed the rated torque for 6-32 alloy steel fasteners as specified by the equipment manufacturer or applicable industry standards. Power down and de-energize any equipment before replacing fasteners in electrical or mechanical assemblies.
