Value Collection PPTCIF0-600750-100BX 6-32 Unc Screw 100

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION PPTCIF0-600750-100BX is a 6-32 UNC thread cutting screw sold in a box of 100. It features a pan head, Phillips drive, and a Type F point designed to cut its own mating threads in pre-drilled or punched holes in light-gauge sheet metal, plastics, and similar materials. The screw is manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish for basic corrosion resistance in dry indoor environments. At 3/4 inch length under head, it is suited for fastening thin panels and enclosures where a machine-screw thread form is needed without a pre-tapped hole. Electricians, HVAC technicians, and general maintenance trades use this fastener routinely in panel assembly and equipment enclosure work.

This screw is commonly used in residential and light commercial applications involving electrical enclosures, HVAC equipment panels, junction boxes, and sheet metal assemblies. The 6-32 UNC thread size is one of the most widely encountered machine-screw sizes in trade work, making this fastener a standard stocking item for service vans and shop bins. The Type F point starts cleanly in drilled or punched clearance holes in steel sheet and thermoplastics without requiring a separate tapping operation.

Key Features

• 6-32 UNC thread form cuts mating threads directly into base material — no pre-tapping required
• Type F point for use in drilled or punched holes in light-gauge steel and plastics
• Pan head profile provides a low-profile bearing surface suitable for flush or near-flush panel applications
• Phillips drive compatible with standard No. 2 Phillips bits and screwdrivers
• Grade 2 steel construction with zinc-plated finish for indoor corrosion resistance
• Sold in a box of 100 for stocking and repetitive-assembly use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 6-32 UNC thread cutting screw suitable for light-gauge sheet metal, thermoplastics, and similar materials where a self-threading machine-screw fastener is required.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hand or with a power driver fitted with a No. 2 Phillips bit. Ensure the pilot hole diameter is appropriate for the base material and thread size before driving to avoid stripping or cracking. De-energize any electrical equipment before fastening panels or enclosures per applicable NEC requirements. Do not overtorque — thread cutting screws in thin material can strip the newly formed threads if driven beyond seating.
