Value Collection A98151 6-32 X 1/2 in Flat Head Machine Screw 50pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION A98151 is a 6-32 UNC flat head machine screw designed for general fastening applications where a flush or countersunk finish is required. Measuring 1/2 inch in overall length with a No. 6-32 thread size, it is driven by a Pin In Torx driver, which provides tamper-resistance and positive bit engagement. The screw is manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish, delivering solid corrosion resistance suitable for indoor and light outdoor environments. Electricians, HVAC technicians, panel fabricators, and mechanical contractors commonly use this screw when securing enclosures, covers, and equipment housings.

This screw is well suited for residential and light commercial applications involving metal enclosures, electrical panels, control boxes, junction boxes, and equipment access covers. The flat head profile sits flush with or below the mating surface when installed in a properly countersunk or pre-tapped hole. The UNC thread standard ensures compatibility with standard inch-series tapped holes and threaded inserts throughout North American trade work. Each package contains 50 screws, making it practical for stocking in service vans or shop bins.

Key Features

• 6-32 UNC thread for standard inch-series tapped holes and threaded inserts
• 1/2 inch overall length for shallow countersunk and through-hole applications
• Pin In Torx drive provides tamper-resistance and reduces cam-out during installation
• 18-8 stainless steel construction offers reliable corrosion resistance in non-marine environments
• Bright, uncoated finish maintains dimensional tolerances without added coating buildup
• Sold in a 50-piece package suitable for job-site stocking

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and general-use fastener for any application requiring a 6-32 UNC flat head machine screw with a 1/2 inch overall length.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified tradespeople using a Pin In Torx driver bit matched to the screw size. Ensure the mating material is properly countersunk or pre-tapped to the 6-32 UNC specification before driving. De-energize any electrical equipment in accordance with NFPA 70E lockout/tagout procedures before fastening components within live panels or enclosures. Do not overtighten into soft materials or thin sheet metal, as stainless steel fasteners are susceptible to galling if driven too aggressively without lubrication.
