Value Collection 872059PR Hex Socket Cap Screw 6-32 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 872059PR is a hex socket cap screw designed for precision fastening in mechanical assemblies, fixtures, and equipment. It features a 6-32 UNC thread and a 5/8-inch length under head, making it well suited for securing components in tight clearances where a hex key is the preferred drive tool. The 7/64-inch hex drive socket accepts a standard Allen wrench. Constructed from alloy steel with a zinc-plated finish, the fastener offers solid mechanical strength and basic corrosion resistance for indoor and general-purpose industrial applications. Fully threaded along the shank, it provides consistent thread engagement across the full clamped length.

This screw is used in light mechanical assemblies, electronic enclosures, machine components, and similar applications requiring a small-diameter, fine-pitch cap screw. The 6-32 UNC thread is a common size in instrumentation, panel work, and light-duty machinery. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and assembly workers are the typical installers. The fastener meets ASME B18.8 and ASTM A574 dimensional and mechanical standards, confirming it is appropriate for load-bearing cap screw applications where those specifications are required.

Key Features

• 6-32 UNC thread for fine-pitch engagement in small-diameter tapped holes
• 5/8-inch length under head provides adequate clamping in standard-depth assemblies
• 7/64-inch hex socket drive accepts standard Allen wrenches and hex-bit drivers
• Fully threaded shank maximizes thread engagement across the full grip length
• Alloy steel construction delivers higher tensile strength than standard carbon steel fasteners
• Zinc-plated finish provides basic corrosion resistance for general indoor use
• Meets ASME B18.8 and ASTM A574 standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-use fastener for any application requiring a 6-32 UNC fully threaded hex socket cap screw with a 5/8-inch length under head.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed using a 7/64-inch hex key or Allen-bit driver. Ensure the mating tapped hole is clean and free of debris before driving the fastener. Do not exceed the torque capacity of the alloy steel fastener or the tapped material. When installing in thin panels or soft substrates, verify thread engagement depth is sufficient to carry the intended load.
