Value Collection 0610MST 6-32 Truss Head Slotted Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 0610MST is a 6-32 truss head machine screw designed for general-purpose fastening in metal assemblies, enclosures, and light structural applications. The screw features a slotted drive and a low-profile truss head that provides a wide bearing surface without requiring a washer. Manufactured from steel with a zinc finish, the 0610MST meets ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 standards. The thread size is 6-32 and the length under head measures 5/8 inches. This fastener is installed by electricians, HVAC technicians, and general tradespeople wherever a compact, corrosion-resistant machine screw is needed.

The 0610MST is suited for light-gauge sheet metal panels, electrical enclosures, control cabinets, and equipment housings where a flush or near-flush screw profile is preferred. The truss head design distributes clamping load across a wider area than a pan or round head, making it a practical choice in thin-material applications. Available in a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per order with one piece per package unit.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 6-32 machine screw for use in any tapped or pre-threaded hole conforming to 6-32 unified coarse thread specifications in metal panels, electrical enclosures, and general equipment assemblies.

Installation Notes

Install using a flat-blade screwdriver sized to the slot width to avoid cam-out and head damage. Ensure the mating hole is properly tapped to 6-32 before installation. Do not overtighten in thin-gauge material, as the steel screw can strip soft or thin base materials. Follow applicable NEC or equipment manufacturer torque guidelines when installing in electrical enclosures.
