Value Collection 0605MSB 6-32 X 5/16 in Binding Head Slotted Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 0605MSB is a 6-32 binding head machine screw designed for general-purpose fastening applications in light-gauge metal assemblies, electrical enclosures, and mechanical subassemblies. The binding head profile sits low against the mating surface and features an undercut that helps retain wiring and thin-gauge material beneath the head. Drive type is slotted, compatible with standard flat-blade drivers. Material is steel with a zinc finish for corrosion resistance in typical indoor environments. Length under head is 5/16 inches, meeting ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 standards. This package contains a quantity of 100 screws per order unit.

This screw is suited for use in control panel assembly, electrical enclosure work, terminal strip mounting, and light mechanical assembly where a low-profile binding head and slotted drive are specified. Electricians, panel builders, and mechanical assembly technicians commonly use this fastener when assembling DIN-rail enclosures, junction boxes, and equipment subpanels. The 6-32 thread is one of the most common machine screw sizes in electrical and electronic assembly work. Sold in multiples of 100, this item is appropriate for production and service bench stock.

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose 6-32 machine screw for use in electrical enclosures, control panels, and mechanical assemblies requiring a binding head, slotted drive, and 5/16-inch length under head per ASME B18.6.3.

Installation Notes

Install using a flat-blade screwdriver sized to the slotted head. De-energize any electrical enclosure before fastening hardware inside live panels, following NEC lockout and tagout procedures. Do not overtighten into soft or thin-gauge base material to avoid stripping the thread or distorting the substrate. Ensure the mating tapped hole or nut matches the 6-32 thread specification before driving the fastener.
