Value Collection 201020P Button Socket Cap Screw 6-32

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 201020P is a button socket cap screw designed for general fastening applications where a low-profile head and high clamping strength are required. Manufactured from alloy steel with a black oxide finish, it carries a 6-32 UNC thread and measures 1/4 inch under the head. The 5/64 hex socket drive accepts a standard hex key for installation. Hardness is rated at 36-43 HRC, meeting ANSI/ASME B18.3 and ASTM F835 standards. This screw is fully threaded with a right-hand thread direction and a Class 3A thread fit, making it suitable for precision fastening in mechanical assemblies and enclosures.

This button socket cap screw is used across a wide range of light industrial, mechanical, and electrical applications where a flush or near-flush head profile is preferred over a standard hex head. Common installation scenarios include panel mounting, equipment housings, fixture assembly, and control enclosures. The black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance in dry or lightly humid indoor environments. Licensed tradespeople and assembly technicians working in HVAC, electrical, or general mechanical service will encounter this fastener type frequently in OEM equipment.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 5/64 inch hex key or ball-end driver. Confirm the mating threaded hole or nut meets Class 3A or 3B tolerance requirements before fastening. Do not exceed the rated torque range for 6-32 alloy steel fasteners as defined by your applicable assembly specification. Inspect threads for contamination or damage before installation to avoid galling or cross-threading.
