Value Collection 581203PR Hex Socket Cap Screw 6-32 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 581203PR is a hex socket cap screw designed for secure fastening in applications requiring a low-profile, high-strength mechanical connection. This screw features a 6-32 UNC thread size with a 5/16-inch length under the head and is fully threaded from head to tip. It is driven with a 7/64-inch hex key. Constructed from alloy steel with a black oxide finish, it offers solid corrosion resistance for general industrial and mechanical assembly work. This fastener meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM A574 standards, making it suitable for demanding service environments where dimensional and strength tolerances matter.

This cap screw is commonly used in light mechanical assemblies, machine components, fixtures, and equipment enclosures where a recessed drive and compact head profile are required. The 6-32 UNC thread is a standard unified coarse thread frequently found in small machine parts, electronics housings, and instrument panels. Installation is typical in manufacturing, maintenance, and field assembly settings handled by machinists, millwrights, maintenance technicians, and industrial tradespeople. The black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance suitable for indoor and semi-protected environments.

Key Features

• 6-32 UNC thread size, fully threaded for maximum engagement along the entire shank
• 5/16-inch length under head for precise fitment in shallow fastening applications
• 7/64-inch hex socket drive for use with standard Allen or hex keys
• Alloy steel construction meets ASTM A574 high-strength fastener requirements
• Black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance and reduces light reflection
• Conforms to ASME/ANSI B18.3 dimensional standards for socket cap screws

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 6-32 UNC hex socket cap screw suitable for use in any application requiring an ASME/ANSI B18.3-compliant socket head cap screw of this thread size and length.

Installation Notes

Install and remove using a 7/64-inch hex key or Allen wrench; ensure the key is fully seated to avoid rounding the drive socket. Confirm mating threads are clean and free of debris before installation. Apply thread-locking compound where vibration resistance is required. Follow applicable mechanical or equipment manufacturer torque guidance for 6-32 fasteners in the specific assembly.
