Value Collection 592129PR Hex Socket Cap Screw 6-32 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 592129PR is a hex socket cap screw designed for precision fastening in mechanical assemblies, maintenance applications, and fabrication work. It features a 6-32 UNC thread size and a 3/16 inch length under head with full threading from head to tip. The drive is a 7/64 inch internal hex socket, requiring an Allen wrench or hex key driver for installation. Constructed from 18-8 stainless steel (Austenitic Grade A2), this screw delivers solid corrosion resistance in both indoor and light outdoor environments. It is appropriate for use by machinists, maintenance technicians, and trade professionals working with light-gauge metal, plastic, or electronic enclosures.

This screw is suited for applications requiring a clean, low-profile cap head and positive hex drive engagement. Common installations include equipment panels, instrument enclosures, machine guards, and structural sub-assemblies where controlled torque and thread engagement are required. The fully threaded shank maximizes thread engagement in shallow or through-hole applications. The 6-32 UNC thread pattern is a standard inch-series coarse thread widely used in light mechanical and electronic assemblies across residential and commercial maintenance environments.

Key Features

• 6-32 UNC fully threaded shank for maximum thread engagement in light mechanical and electronic applications
• 3/16 inch length under head suits shallow fastening applications and thin-material assemblies
• 7/64 inch internal hex socket drive for precise torque control with standard Allen or hex key tools
• 18-8 stainless steel construction (Austenitic Grade A2) provides corrosion resistance in general-use environments
• Meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F837 fastener standards for dimensional and mechanical conformance

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 6-32 UNC hex socket cap screw for use in any application requiring an ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM F837 compliant inch-series socket cap fastener with a 3/16 inch under-head length.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a 7/64 inch hex key or Allen driver. Ensure the mating threaded hole is clean and free of debris before driving the screw. Apply only the hand torque appropriate for 6-32 stainless fasteners to avoid galling, which can occur when stainless threads are driven too aggressively. Anti-seize compound may be used on stainless fasteners in applications where future removal is expected.
