Value Collection 080605EH 8-32 X 3/8 Hex Head Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 080605EH is a hex head, hex drive machine screw engineered for general-purpose fastening applications. Sized at 8-32 thread with a 3/8-inch length under head, this screw is manufactured from steel with a zinc finish that provides baseline corrosion resistance in indoor and light-duty environments. It conforms to ASME B18.13a and SAE J82 standards, making it a consistent, spec-verified option for assembly work. An external tooth washer style locks the fastener under load and reduces backing out during vibration. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and electricians commonly use this screw size in panel assembly, equipment mounting, and enclosure work.

This screw is suited for threaded metal assemblies where a 8-32 machine screw is called for. The hex head accepts a wrench or nut driver for positive torque application without fastener slippage. The hex drive provides a secondary drive option. Typical uses include control panel assembly, electrical enclosures, light-gauge steel brackets, and general machine assembly where a unified inch-series fastener is required. Sold individually per package with a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces.

Key Features

• 8-32 unified coarse thread for standard inch-series assemblies
• 3/8-inch length under head for precise fit in shallow clearance applications
• Hex head and hex drive for wrench or driver installation
• External tooth washer style reduces vibration loosening
• Zinc finish over steel for light corrosion resistance
• Meets ASME B18.13a and SAE J82 fastener standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series machine screw for any threaded application requiring an 8-32 hex head fastener in steel with zinc finish.

Installation Notes

Install with an appropriately sized hex wrench or nut driver. Ensure the mating thread is clean and free of debris before driving. Power down all electrical equipment before installing fasteners in or near live panels, per NEC guidelines. Do not overtighten into light-gauge material, as thread stripping can occur without a proper torque-limiting tool.
