Value Collection R63098649 6-32 X 1/4 in Oval Slotted Brass Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63098649 is a 6-32 x 1/4 inch oval head machine screw with a slotted drive, manufactured in brass with a bright uncoated finish. It follows Unified National Coarse (UNC) thread standards and is sold without a washer. The overall length and length under head are both 1/4 inch, making this a short fastener suited for light-duty mechanical assemblies. Its brass construction offers natural corrosion resistance and low magnetic signature. Electricians, HVAC technicians, and general mechanical assemblers use this style of fastener when securing panels, covers, or terminal components where a flush-seated oval head profile is required.

This screw is commonly used in control panels, electrical enclosures, light-gauge sheet metal assemblies, and electronic equipment housings. The 6-32 UNC thread size is one of the most widely used coarse-thread machine screw standards in North American trade work. Its slotted drive is compatible with standard flat-blade screwdrivers, and the oval head provides a slightly domed, countersunk appearance for finished-surface applications. This item ships in multiples of 100 units per order, with 1 unit per package in the supplier configuration.

Key Features

• 6-32 UNC thread specification for broad compatibility with standard tapped holes and hex nuts
• Oval head profile provides a low-profile, domed appearance suited for finished panel surfaces
• Slotted drive accepts standard flat-blade screwdrivers — no specialty tools required
• Brass material offers corrosion resistance and non-magnetic properties
• Bright uncoated finish — no plating to chip or flake in service
• No washer included; overall length and under-head length are both 1/4 inch

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 6-32 UNC machine screw for use in any application requiring a 6-32 tapped hole or mating hex nut. Typical fitment includes electrical enclosures, control panels, and light-gauge mechanical assemblies that accept 6-32 threaded fasteners.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a standard flat-blade screwdriver sized to the slot width. De-energize any electrical panel or enclosure before installing or removing fasteners in live equipment. Do not overtighten brass fasteners — brass is softer than steel and the threads can strip under excessive torque. Follow applicable NEC or equipment-manufacturer guidelines when securing covers on electrical enclosures.
