Value Collection MP72042 Hex Socket Cap Screw 6-32 Unc 50 Pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MP72042 is a 6-32 UNC hex socket cap screw designed for secure fastening in tight-clearance applications where a hex key drive is required. The screw measures 1/2 inch in length under head and is fully threaded along that length, providing consistent thread engagement from end to end. Manufactured from alloy steel with a black oxide coating, it offers improved corrosion resistance and reduced surface glare compared to plain steel fasteners. This 50-piece package suits technicians and tradespeople who need reliable quantities on hand for panel assembly, equipment mounting, and light structural fastening tasks.

This screw is commonly used in HVAC equipment panels, electrical enclosures, control boxes, and mechanical assemblies where a low-profile socket drive fastener is required. The 6-32 UNC thread is a standard coarse-pitch machine screw thread widely found in commercial and residential equipment across HVAC, electrical, and light mechanical applications. The black oxide finish makes it a practical choice where a non-reflective, lightly protected fastener is specified.

Key Features

• 6-32 UNC thread for broad compatibility with standard machine screw tapped holes
• 1/2 inch length under head with full threading for maximum thread engagement
• 7/64 inch hex socket drive for use with standard hex keys and Allen wrenches
• Alloy steel construction for strength in mechanical and equipment fastening applications
• Black oxide coating provides light corrosion resistance and a non-reflective finish
• 50-piece pack suitable for service vehicles, shop stock, and job-site use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 6-32 UNC machine screw for use in any application with a corresponding 6-32 tapped hole or clearance hole, conforming to ANSI B18.3, ANSI B18.8.2, ANSI B2.2, and MS16555 fastener standards.

Installation Notes

Install with a 7/64 inch hex key or Allen driver. Ensure the mating tapped hole is clean and free of debris before driving the screw. De-energize any electrical equipment before accessing panels or enclosures during fastener service. Do not over-torque; alloy steel cap screws in small diameters can be damaged if driven beyond the fastener or tapped-hole rating.
