Value Collection R52000860 Hex Head Machine Screw 6-32

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R52000860 is a 6-32 x 0.75 inch hex head machine screw manufactured from steel with a zinc-plated finish. It features a hex drive and is produced to ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 standards, making it a reliable choice for general mechanical assembly and fastening applications. The zinc plating provides basic corrosion resistance for indoor and light-duty environments. Length is measured under the head. These screws are sold in minimum order quantities of 100 pieces and are suited for use by maintenance technicians, electricians, HVAC service pros, and general contractors who need a dependable standard fastener for panel, enclosure, or equipment assembly work.

This screw is intended for use in light-to-medium duty mechanical assemblies where a 6-32 thread size and 0.75 inch length under head are required. Typical applications include securing control panels, electrical enclosures, HVAC equipment covers, and similar sheet metal or light structural components. The hex head and hex drive allow for wrench or hex key installation in confined spaces where a slotted or Phillips driver may not provide adequate torque. Grade J82 designates the mechanical property class per SAE standards.

Key Features

• 6-32 UNC thread size for standard machine screw applications
• 0.75 inch length under head provides reliable thread engagement in typical panel stock
• Hex head and hex drive allow wrench and hex key installation in tight spaces
• Zinc-plated steel finish offers basic corrosion resistance for indoor use
• Meets ASME B18.6.3 and SAE J82 dimensional and mechanical standards
• No washer included; designed for direct bearing against mating surface

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 6-32 UNC machine screw suitable for use in electrical enclosures, control panels, HVAC equipment housings, and general mechanical assemblies requiring ASME B18.6.3 compliant fasteners.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by electricians, HVAC technicians, or mechanical assemblers using a hex key or appropriate wrench sized for the hex head. Always de-energize and lock out electrical equipment before fastening or removing hardware on live panels, per applicable NFPA 70 (NEC) guidelines. Do not over-torque; thread stripping is a risk when driving into thin sheet metal. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before installation.
