Value Collection R40666464 Hex Socket Cap Screw 6-32

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R40666464 is a hex socket cap screw designed for secure mechanical fastening in a wide range of industrial and trade applications. Featuring a 6-32 UNC thread size and a 5/8-inch length under head, this screw accepts a 7/64-inch hex drive for precise torque application with an Allen key or hex bit. Constructed from 18-8 stainless steel, it delivers solid corrosion resistance in both indoor and outdoor environments. Electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general mechanical trades commonly use fasteners like this when assembling panels, brackets, equipment enclosures, and mounting hardware.

This screw is suited for light-duty mechanical assemblies where a compact, low-profile cap screw is required. The 6-32 UNC thread is a standard unified coarse thread commonly found in electrical enclosures, small machinery, and equipment panels across residential and commercial applications. The stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for environments with moderate moisture exposure where carbon steel fasteners would corrode prematurely.

Key Features

• 6-32 UNC thread for compatibility with standard unified coarse tapped holes
• 5/8-inch length under head for secure engagement in typical panel and bracket stock
• 7/64-inch hex socket drive for precise installation with Allen keys or hex bits
• 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in damp or outdoor-adjacent environments
• Compact cap screw head profile keeps a low protrusion above the mating surface

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 6-32 UNC hex socket cap screw for use in any tapped hole or threaded insert conforming to the 6-32 unified coarse thread specification.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 7/64-inch hex key or compatible hex bit driver. Ensure the mating threaded hole is clean and free of debris before driving the screw. Do not overtighten into thin or soft base materials, as the 6-32 thread is susceptible to stripping under excessive torque. De-energize any electrical equipment before accessing panels or enclosures where fasteners are being replaced or installed.
