Value Collection 0206MSB 2-56 X 3/8 in Binding Head Slotted Machine

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 0206MSB is a binding head machine screw designed for precision fastening applications requiring a low-profile, broad-bearing head. Sized at 2-56 thread with a 3/8 inch length under head, this screw is manufactured from steel with a zinc finish for basic corrosion resistance. The slotted drive accepts a standard flat-blade screwdriver, making it a straightforward choice for assembly and maintenance work. It conforms to ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 standards, making it suitable for applications where dimensional consistency and material grade compliance are required.

This screw is commonly used in light-duty mechanical assemblies, instrument panels, electrical enclosures, and small equipment frames where a binding head profile is preferred for its wide, flat underside that distributes clamping load across the mating surface. Sold in packages of one unit with a minimum order quantity of 100, this part is intended for shops, service departments, and assembly operations that maintain fastener stock for ongoing production or repair work.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series machine screw for use in any application requiring a 2-56 threaded fastener with a binding head profile and slotted drive, conforming to ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by assembly technicians or service professionals using a flat-blade screwdriver sized to the slotted head. Ensure the mating thread is clean and properly tapped to 2-56 specifications before driving. Do not overtorque small-diameter screws, as steel fasteners at this size are susceptible to thread stripping or head damage. Follow applicable equipment manufacturer guidelines for torque requirements on the specific assembly.
