Value Collection 580263PR 6-32x2in Flat Head Slotted Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 580263PR is a 6-32 unified coarse thread (UNC) machine screw designed for general fastening applications in metal, plastic, and composite assemblies. It features a flat head profile with a slotted drive and measures 2 inches in overall length. Constructed from Grade 2 steel with a zinc finish, this screw resists corrosion in typical indoor environments. It ships without a washer, making it suited for countersunk or flush-mount installations. Machinists, maintenance technicians, electricians, and assemblers regularly specify this fastener where a low-profile head is required and standard UNC thread engagement is acceptable.

This screw fits applications calling for a 6-32 thread pitch in light to moderate load-bearing assemblies. Typical uses include panel mounting, electrical enclosure work, equipment housings, and general mechanical assemblies where a flush-seated flat head is needed. The zinc coating provides a baseline level of protection suitable for dry or mildly humid indoor conditions. This item is sold in multiples of 100 units per order.

Key Features

• 6-32 UNC thread for reliable engagement in standard tapped holes
• Flat head profile allows flush or countersunk installation
• Slotted drive compatible with standard flat-blade screwdrivers
• Grade 2 steel construction provides adequate strength for light to moderate duty use
• Zinc finish for basic corrosion resistance in indoor environments
• No integrated washer, suited for direct countersink seating

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 6-32 UNC machine screw for use in any application requiring a flat head slotted fastener with a 2-inch overall length and inch-system thread specification.

Installation Notes

Install using a flat-blade screwdriver sized to the slot width to avoid cam-out and head damage. Ensure the mating hole is tapped to 6-32 UNC specification before driving. Do not overtighten Grade 2 fasteners in thin or soft base materials, as the lower tensile rating compared to Grade 5 or Grade 8 fasteners increases the risk of thread stripping. Follow applicable mechanical assembly standards for torque guidance based on material and joint design.
