Minerallac 52248J 6-32 X 3 Round Head Machine Screw

Product Description

The MINERALLAC 52248J is a 6-32 x 3 round head machine screw with a combination slotted and Phillips drive. This fastener is used to secure electrical components, enclosures, panels, and hardware where a standard 6-32 threaded fastening point is required. The round head profile sits above the material surface, making it well suited for through-hole applications where a low-profile or flush finish is not needed. The dual drive design accepts both a flat-blade screwdriver and a Phillips driver, giving installers flexibility in the field. At 0.010 pounds per unit, this is a lightweight fastener appropriate for light-duty mechanical assembly in electrical and electronic applications.

This machine screw is commonly used in electrical trade work for mounting components inside load centers, junction boxes, control panels, and enclosures. It is also found in HVAC equipment assembly and light commercial panel work where 6-32 hardware is a standard fastening size. The combination drive makes it accessible with the most common hand tools carried by electricians and HVAC technicians.

Key Features

• 6-32 thread size with 3-inch length for through-panel and stacked-component applications
• Round head profile provides a secure bearing surface above the work material
• Combination slotted and Phillips drive accepts flat-blade or Phillips screwdrivers
• Lightweight at 0.010 pounds per fastener
• Standard machine screw thread for broad hardware compatibility

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 6-32 machine screw for use in electrical enclosures, control panels, junction boxes, and similar assemblies requiring a round head slotted and Phillips fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by electricians, HVAC technicians, and other trade professionals using a flat-blade or Phillips screwdriver. De-energize all circuits and follow applicable NEC guidelines before working inside any electrical enclosure or panel. Use the correct driver size to avoid cam-out and damage to the drive recess. Do not overtighten, as 6-32 threads in light-gauge sheet metal or plastic standoffs can strip under excessive torque.
