Value Collection 0806MSB 8-32 X 3/8 in Binding Head Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 0806MSB is a zinc-plated steel machine screw designed for general-purpose fastening applications in mechanical, electrical, and light industrial assemblies. It features an 8-32 unified coarse thread with a 3/8-inch length measured under the head. The binding head profile provides a low-profile clamping surface with a larger bearing area than a standard pan head, making it a common choice in panel and enclosure assembly. Drive type is slotted, compatible with standard flathead screwdrivers. Manufactured to ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 dimensional and material standards.

This screw is suited for residential and commercial electrical panel work, HVAC control board mounting, junction box assembly, and general sheet metal or light structural fastening where an 8-32 thread is specified. The zinc-plated finish provides a basic level of corrosion resistance appropriate for indoor and protected indoor-outdoor installations. Slotted drive allows use with common hand tools in tight-access panel environments. Sold individually per package, with a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces.

Key Features

• 8-32 unified coarse thread, 3/8-inch length under head
• Binding head style offers a wide, flat bearing surface for panel and enclosure work
• Slotted drive compatible with standard flathead screwdrivers and bit drivers
• Zinc-plated steel construction for basic corrosion resistance in protected environments
• Meets ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 dimensional standards
• Material Grade J82 steel for consistent mechanical properties

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 8-32 machine screw for use in any application requiring ASME B18.6.3 compliant inch-series fasteners with a binding head profile and slotted drive.

Installation Notes

Install using a standard flathead screwdriver or slotted bit driver sized for a number 8 screw. De-energize all electrical panels and enclosures before beginning fastener work in live assemblies, per NFPA 70 (NEC) safe work practices. Do not overtighten into thin sheet metal or plastic standoffs, as the binding head bearing surface can crack brittle substrates. Use a thread-locking compound if vibration resistance is required in the application.
