Value Collection 0812MSB 8-32 Binding Head Slotted Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 0812MSB is a binding head machine screw designed for secure fastening in light to medium-duty mechanical assemblies. Threaded 8-32 with a 0.75-inch length under head, this screw features a slotted drive and a low-profile binding head that clamps material firmly without countersinking. It is manufactured from steel with a zinc finish for basic corrosion resistance. Conforming to ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82, this fastener meets established dimensional and mechanical standards. It is a field staple for electricians, HVAC techs, panel assemblers, and maintenance tradespeople working with light sheet metal, electrical enclosures, and equipment housings.

This screw suits residential and commercial applications where a slotted binding head is specified by equipment manufacturers or installation standards. Common use cases include securing terminal strips, control board mounting brackets, electrical panel components, and general sheet-metal assemblies. The binding head style provides a wider bearing surface than a round or pan head, making it well suited for clamping thin or soft materials. Sold in a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per transaction, with a package quantity of 1.

Key Features

• Binding head profile provides wide bearing surface without countersinking
• Slotted drive compatible with standard flathead screwdrivers and bit sets
• Steel construction with zinc finish for basic corrosion resistance
• Meets ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 dimensional and mechanical standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 8-32 binding head machine screw suitable for use in electrical enclosures, control panels, HVAC equipment housings, and general mechanical assemblies that call out this thread size and head style per ASME B18.6.3 requirements.

Installation Notes

Install using a flathead screwdriver or slotted bit matched to the drive recess to avoid cam-out and head damage. De-energize electrical equipment and follow applicable NEC lockout-tagout procedures before replacing or installing fasteners inside live panels or enclosures. Do not over-torque; binding head screws in thin sheet metal can strip or deform the base material if driven beyond hand-snug plus a controlled quarter turn. Inspect mating threads before installation to confirm they are clean, undamaged, and sized for 8-32 fasteners.
