Value Collection 0606ESP 6-32 Pan Head Slotted Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 0606ESP is a 6-32 pan head slotted machine screw designed for general-purpose mechanical fastening applications. Built from steel with a zinc finish, this screw measures 3/8 inches in length under the head and conforms to ASME B18.13a and SAE J82 standards. The pan head profile provides a low-profile bearing surface suitable for sheet metal, plastic enclosures, and light structural assemblies. The slotted drive accepts a standard flat-blade screwdriver. This fastener is sized in the inch measurement system and is a staple in electrical, HVAC, and light mechanical assembly work.

This screw is suited for residential and commercial installations where a 6-32 threaded fastener is required. Common applications include securing electrical panels, control boards, equipment enclosures, junction boxes, and light-duty mechanical components. The zinc coating provides basic corrosion resistance for indoor environments. Electricians, HVAC technicians, and equipment assemblers routinely use this size when mounting components to pre-threaded chassis or using matching hex nuts. Sold in a package quantity of one unit with a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 6-32 inch-series machine screw suitable for pre-threaded chassis, electrical enclosures, control boards, and light mechanical assemblies requiring a pan head slotted fastener.

Installation Notes

Install using a flat-blade screwdriver sized to the slot width to avoid cam-out and head damage. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before driving. When used in electrical enclosures or control panels, de-energize equipment and follow applicable NEC requirements before working inside. Do not overtighten into plastic or thin sheet metal to avoid thread stripping.
