Value Collection R52000309 Machine Screw 6-32 Brass

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R52000309 is a 6-32 x 1/4 inch round head slotted machine screw manufactured from brass and conforming to ASME B18.6.3. The screw features a 1/4 inch length measured under the head with no washer face. It is a standard inch-series fastener used across a wide range of mechanical assembly, electrical enclosure, and light structural applications. Installation requires a flat-blade screwdriver sized to the slotted drive. The brass construction provides corrosion resistance and electrical conductivity, making it a common choice in electrical and electronic assemblies.

This machine screw is suited for residential and commercial applications where a 6-32 threaded fastener is specified. Typical uses include securing terminal strips, control boards, enclosure panels, nameplates, and small mechanical components. The round head profile provides a low-clearance bearing surface without the need for a countersunk hole. These screws are commonly used by electricians, HVAC technicians, and general assembly technicians in both field and shop environments.

Key Features

• Thread size 6-32 inch series for broad compatibility with standard tapped holes and hex nuts
• Round head profile distributes clamping load without countersinking
• Slotted drive accepts standard flat-blade screwdrivers
• Brass construction offers corrosion resistance and electrical conductivity
• Meets ASME B18.6.3 dimensional and tolerance standard
• No washer face — length measurement taken under head per standard

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 6-32 inch-series machine screw for use wherever a round head slotted brass fastener conforming to ASME B18.6.3 is specified.

Installation Notes

Install using a flat-blade screwdriver matched to the slot width to avoid cam-out and slot damage. Ensure the mating tapped hole or nut is 6-32 thread before driving. Brass is a softer alloy than steel — do not overtorque, as thread stripping can occur. For electrical enclosure work, follow applicable NEC guidelines for fastener installation in energized panels and de-energize circuits before servicing internal components.
