Value Collection 581209PR Hex Socket Cap Screw 6-32 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 581209PR is a hex socket cap screw designed for precision fastening applications where a flush or recessed drive is required. Sized at 6-32 UNC with a 1-1/4 inch length under head, this fastener is partially threaded and driven with a 7/64 inch hex key. Constructed from alloy steel with a black oxide finish coating, it delivers solid mechanical strength with moderate corrosion resistance in covered or interior environments. This screw meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM A574 standards, making it suitable for applications that demand dimensional and tensile consistency. Typically installed by machinists, millwrights, electricians, and HVAC technicians during equipment assembly or panel work.

This screw is well suited for light mechanical assemblies, equipment enclosures, control panels, and general trade applications requiring a compact, recessed-drive fastener. The black oxide alloy steel construction is appropriate for indoor or protected environments. The 6-32 UNC thread pattern is a common machine screw size used across HVAC equipment, electrical enclosures, and light structural assemblies. Partial threading allows the unthreaded shank to align mating components before the thread engages.

Key Features

• 6-32 UNC thread size with 1-1/4 inch length under head
• Partially threaded for improved shank alignment during installation
• 7/64 inch hex socket drive for recessed, torque-efficient fastening
• Alloy steel construction meets ASTM A574 mechanical strength requirements
• Black oxide finish coating for surface protection in dry or interior settings
• Conforms to ASME/ANSI B18.3 dimensional standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 6-32 UNC hex socket cap screw for use in any application requiring ASME/ANSI B18.3 compliant fasteners with a 7/64 inch hex drive and 1-1/4 inch length under head.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a 7/64 inch hex key or Allen driver. Ensure the mating tapped hole is clean and free of debris before driving. Do not overtighten alloy steel screws in softer base materials such as aluminum or plastic housings, as thread stripping can occur. Follow applicable equipment manufacturer torque guidelines and relevant codes such as NEC or ASME standards when used in electrical or mechanical assemblies.
