Value Collection MSC-67611483 Hex Socket Cap Screw 6-32

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSC-67611483 is a 6-32 UNC hex socket cap screw designed for precision fastening in mechanical assemblies, fixtures, and equipment enclosures. Machined from 18-8 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish, this fastener resists corrosion in both indoor and light outdoor service environments. The 7/16-inch length under head and full thread engagement across the entire shank make it well suited for thin-material applications where maximum thread contact is needed. A 7/64-inch hex drive socket is required for installation. Suitable for use by millwrights, maintenance technicians, equipment assemblers, and industrial contractors working across a range of commercial and light industrial projects.

This screw is commonly used in panel assembly, electronics enclosures, instrument mounting, and general mechanical fastening where a low-profile socket head and corrosion-resistant material are required. The 6-32 UNC thread is a standard coarse thread designation widely used in North American equipment manufacturing, making this fastener easy to source and cross-reference. Fully threaded construction is ideal for tapped-hole applications in aluminum, mild steel, and plastic substrates where consistent clamping load across the full shank length is needed.

Key Features

• 6-32 UNC thread size with fully threaded shank for maximum thread engagement
• 18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet or humid environments
• Bright, uncoated finish maintains close dimensional tolerances without added coating thickness
• 7/16-inch length under head suits thin-material and shallow tapped-hole applications
• Hex socket drive accepts standard 7/64-inch hex key or socket driver

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 6-32 UNC hex socket cap screw compatible with any tapped hole or threaded insert conforming to the 6-32 UNC thread standard.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 7/64-inch hex key or socket driver bit. Ensure the mating tapped hole or threaded insert is clean and free of debris before driving the screw. Apply torque gradually and evenly to avoid galling, which is common with stainless steel fasteners on stainless or aluminum threads. Use of an anti-seize compound is recommended when fastening into stainless or aluminum tapped holes to prevent thread seizure during removal.
