Value Collection 0640MPR 6-32 X 2.5in Round Head Phillips Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 0640MPR is a 6-32 x 2.5-inch round head Phillips machine screw manufactured from steel with a zinc-plated finish. It meets ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 dimensional and material standards, making it a reliable choice for general mechanical assembly work. The zinc coating provides a basic layer of corrosion resistance suitable for indoor and light-duty applications. Thread size is 6-32 unified coarse, with length measured under the head at 2.5 inches. This fastener ships in multiples of 100, suitable for shop stock or job-lot purchasing by maintenance technicians, mechanical contractors, and field service personnel.

This screw is used in a wide range of light mechanical assemblies, panel mounting, electrical enclosure work, and equipment fabrication where a 6-32 threaded fastener is specified. The round head profile provides a low-profile bearing surface suitable for clearance holes in sheet metal, plastic housings, and light structural components. It is installed without a washer and is appropriate for both manual and power driver installation using a Phillips bit.

Key Features

• 6-32 unified coarse thread for broad compatibility with standard tapped holes and nuts
• 2.5-inch length under head suits deeper stack assemblies and panel pass-through applications
• Round head Phillips drive allows installation with standard Phillips screwdrivers or power drivers
• Zinc-plated steel finish provides basic corrosion resistance for indoor use
• Meets ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 standards for dimensional consistency and material grade
• No washer — clean installation in close-tolerance applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 6-32 machine screw compatible with any tapped hole, hex nut, or threaded insert conforming to 6-32 UNC thread specifications per ASME and SAE standards.

Installation Notes

Install using a properly sized Phillips screwdriver or a Phillips-tipped power driver to avoid cam-out and head damage. Verify the mating thread is 6-32 UNC before driving to prevent cross-threading. When used in electrical enclosures or control panels, follow applicable NEC guidelines for fastener use near live components. Always use the correct torque for the application — avoid over-driving, which can strip the 6-32 thread or deform the round head.
