Value Collection R40666429 Hex Socket Cap Screw 6-32

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R40666429 is a hex socket cap screw designed for precise, torque-controlled fastening in industrial, mechanical, and trade applications. This fastener features a 6-32 UNC thread size with a 1/4 inch length under head, driven by a 7/64 inch hex key. Constructed from 18-8 stainless steel, it resists corrosion in wet, humid, or mildly chemical environments. The socket cap head allows for flush or recessed installation in tight clearance situations where a standard wrench or screwdriver cannot reach. Electricians, plumbers, HVAC techs, and general mechanical tradespeople use socket cap screws like this when building panels, mounting components, or assembling equipment.

This screw is suited for light-duty mechanical assemblies, electrical enclosures, control panels, and equipment mounting applications. The fine 6-32 UNC thread provides good holding strength in metal tapped holes or with a matching nut. The 1/4 inch under-head length makes it appropriate for thin-material fastening where a longer screw would bottom out or protrude. Applications include HVAC equipment assembly, electrical panel component mounting, and plumbing fixture hardware. Minimum order quantity is 100 pieces per order.

Key Features

• 6-32 UNC thread for compatibility with standard tapped holes in light mechanical and electrical assemblies
• 7/64 inch hex drive for use with a standard hex key or Allen wrench
• 1/4 inch length under head for thin-material fastening
• 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in damp or humid environments
• Socket cap head profile allows installation in low-clearance or recessed locations

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 6-32 UNC hex socket cap screw for use wherever a 6-32 threaded fastener with a 7/64 inch hex drive and 1/4 inch under-head length is specified.

Installation Notes

Install using a 7/64 inch hex key or Allen wrench. Ensure the mating tapped hole or nut is clean and free of debris before threading. Power down any electrical equipment before fastening components inside enclosures or panels. Do not overtighten stainless steel fasteners in tapped holes, as galling can occur — apply appropriate anti-seize compound when threading into stainless or aluminum tapped holes.
