Value Collection MS35206-229 Machine Screw 6-32 Pan Head

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MS35206-229 is a 6-32 threaded machine screw designed for general-purpose mechanical fastening in metalwork, electrical enclosures, and equipment assembly. It features a pan head profile with a Phillips drive, making it compatible with standard Phillips screwdrivers and bit drivers. The screw measures 7/16 inches length under head, manufactured from steel with a yellow cadmium finish that provides corrosion resistance in moderate service environments. It meets the MS35206 military fastener standard and carries a Grade 3 material designation. Sold in minimum order quantities of 100 units, this screw is suited for production assembly, MRO replenishment, and service shop stock.

This screw is used across a wide range of applications including HVAC control panel assembly, electrical enclosure hardware, light-gauge sheet metal fastening, and general equipment maintenance. The 6-32 thread size is a common standard in low-voltage control boards, junction boxes, and instrument panels. The pan head provides a low-profile clamping surface without requiring a countersink, making it appropriate for mounting into flat or pre-drilled clearance holes in metal or plastic substrates.

Key Features

• 6-32 unified coarse thread for reliable engagement in standard tapped holes
• Pan head profile with Phillips drive for high-torque installation with common tooling
• 7/16 inches length under head suits thin-material and panel-mount applications
• Yellow cadmium finish provides corrosion resistance in moderate-duty environments
• Meets MS35206 military fastener standard for dimensional and material consistency
• Grade 3 steel construction balances strength and machinability

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-stock fastener for equipment and assemblies specifying 6-32 pan head Phillips machine screws per the MS35206 fastener standard.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hand or with a Phillips screwdriver or bit driver. Ensure the mating hole is tapped to 6-32 thread specification or uses a matching clearance hole before driving. Power down any electrical equipment before accessing control panels or enclosures. Avoid over-torquing into plastic substrates or thin sheet metal to prevent thread stripping.
