Value Collection R52000310 Machine Screw 6-32 X 3/8 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R52000310 is a 6-32 brass machine screw with a round head and slotted drive, designed for general fastening applications in light mechanical and electrical assemblies. The screw measures 3/8 inches in length under head and conforms to ASME B18.6.3, the standard governing slotted and cross-recessed head machine screws in inch dimensions. Brass construction provides moderate corrosion resistance and is suitable for applications where non-magnetic or non-ferrous fasteners are required. This screw is installed by electricians, HVAC technicians, and general mechanical trades using a standard flathead screwdriver.

This screw is commonly used in panel assemblies, electrical enclosures, light-duty equipment brackets, and other applications calling for a 6-32 thread in a compact 3/8-inch length. The round head profile sits above the mating surface and distributes clamping load without requiring a countersunk hole. The slotted drive is compatible with standard flathead screwdrivers and is well suited to applications where torque requirements are moderate. Sold in multiples of 100.

Key Features

• 6-32 unified coarse thread for reliable engagement in tapped holes and threaded inserts
• Brass material offers corrosion resistance and non-magnetic properties
• Round head profile distributes load without countersinking
• Slotted drive for use with standard flathead screwdrivers
• Conforms to ASME B18.6.3 for dimensional consistency
• No washer — clean installation without added hardware

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or general-use fastener for assemblies requiring a 6-32 threaded brass machine screw with a round slotted head and 3/8-inch length under head.

Installation Notes

Install using a flathead screwdriver sized to the slot width to avoid cam-out and slot damage. Brass fasteners have lower shear strength than steel — do not overtighten, as this can strip the threads in softer base materials. Power down any electrical enclosure before accessing internal fastener points. Follow applicable NEC or equipment manufacturer torque guidelines where specified.
