Value Collection MS35206-231 6-32 Pan Head Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MS35206-231 is a 6-32 pan head machine screw designed for general-purpose fastening in metal assemblies, enclosures, and equipment panels. Built to Fastener Standard MS35206, this screw features a Phillips drive, a pan head profile, and a yellow cadmium finish over Grade 3 steel. The yellow cadmium coating provides corrosion resistance and is commonly specified in military and aerospace maintenance applications where MS-standard hardware is required. The 5/8-inch length under head makes it suitable for thin-to-medium stack fastenings. At 0.0278 pounds per unit, the screw is lightweight and sized for standard #6-32 tapped holes.

This screw is used in residential and commercial electrical enclosures, control panels, sheet metal assemblies, and equipment racks where #6-32 threaded fasteners are called out. It is also widely used in maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) environments where MS35206-series hardware is specified by drawing or standard. Typical installers include electricians, HVAC technicians, and industrial maintenance personnel. The Phillips drive allows installation with standard hand tools or a power driver at controlled torque.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a Phillips screwdriver or bit driver sized for a #6 screw. Power down or de-energize any electrical panel or enclosure before installing or removing fasteners. Do not overtighten into tapped sheet metal, as cross-threading or stripping can occur in thin-gauge material. Follow applicable assembly drawings or engineering specifications for torque requirements.
