Value Collection 0606MSB 6-32 X 3/8 in Binding Head Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 0606MSB is a 6-32 binding head machine screw designed for general-purpose mechanical fastening in trade and industrial applications. The binding head profile sits low and wide, providing a large bearing surface that resists pull-through in sheet metal, electrical panels, switchgear enclosures, and light structural assemblies. The screw is 3/8 inches in length under the head, with a slotted drive for compatibility with standard flat-blade tools. Manufactured from steel with a zinc finish, it meets the dimensional and mechanical requirements of ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82, Grade J82. The zinc coating provides baseline corrosion resistance for indoor and protected environments.

This screw is commonly used by electricians, HVAC technicians, and mechanical contractors for panel cover fastening, equipment mounting, and light-duty assembly work. The 6-32 thread is one of the most common coarse-thread sizes in North American electrical and HVAC enclosure work. The slotted drive allows installation with basic hand tools, making it well-suited for field service and panel maintenance tasks. Sold in a package quantity of one unit; minimum order quantity is 100 units.

Key Features

• Binding head profile provides a large, low-profile bearing surface for sheet metal and panel applications
• 6-32 thread size, one of the most widely used coarse-thread standards in electrical and HVAC panel work
• 3/8 inches length under head for shallow-clearance fastening tasks
• Slotted drive compatible with standard flat-blade screwdrivers
• Steel construction with zinc finish for indoor corrosion resistance
• Meets ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82, Grade J82 standards

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose 6-32 coarse-thread machine screw suitable for use wherever binding head slotted fasteners are specified per ASME B18.6.3 or SAE J82 standards.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a flat-blade screwdriver sized to the slotted head. When used in electrical enclosures or panels, de-energize the panel and follow all applicable NEC requirements before fastening. Do not overtighten into thin sheet metal; the binding head is designed to distribute clamping load, not to be driven flush. Use a thread gauge to confirm mating threads are 6-32 before installation to avoid cross-threading.
