Value Collection 581223PR Hex Socket Cap Screw 6-32 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 581223PR is a hex socket cap screw designed for precision fastening applications where high strength and a compact drive are required. It features a 6-32 UNC thread size with a 2-3/4 inch length under the head and a 7/64 inch hex drive. The screw is partially threaded, making it well-suited for applications that require a clamped, unthreaded shank. Constructed from alloy steel with a black oxide finish, it delivers solid corrosion resistance and a clean, non-reflective appearance. This fastener is installed using a hex key or Allen wrench and is appropriate for mechanical assemblies, tool and die work, and light industrial fabrication.

This cap screw is a standard choice for mechanical, electrical, and industrial applications requiring a socket-head fastener in a UNC thread form. It is commonly used in machine frames, enclosures, fixtures, jigs, and equipment panels. The partially threaded shank allows for controlled clamping force when fastening two or more components together. Licensed trades and skilled maintenance professionals routinely specify this fastener for precision assemblies where tight tolerances and consistent preload are critical.

Key Features

• 6-32 UNC thread size for standard unified coarse thread applications
• 2-3/4 inches length under head with partial threading for shank clamping
• 7/64 inch hex socket drive for use with standard Allen wrenches or hex keys
• Alloy steel construction meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM A574 standards
• Black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance and reduced light reflection

Compatibility

Designed as a standard UNC hex socket cap screw compatible with 6-32 threaded holes per ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM A574 specifications. Suitable for use wherever a 6-32 socket head cap screw with a 2-3/4 inch length under head is specified.

Installation Notes

Install using a 7/64 inch hex key or Allen wrench. Ensure the mating threaded hole is clean and free of debris before installation. Do not overtighten, as alloy steel fasteners in fine or small thread sizes can be susceptible to galling or thread stripping if torque is not controlled. Follow applicable industry standards and equipment manufacturer torque guidelines for 6-32 UNC fasteners.
