Value Collection R63098684 6-32 Oval Head Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63098684 is a 6-32 x 3/8-inch oval head machine screw designed for general-purpose fastening in light mechanical assemblies. Machined from brass with a bright, uncoated finish, this fastener resists corrosion in low-moisture environments and provides reliable conductivity for electrical or grounding applications. The slotted drive accepts a standard flathead screwdriver, making installation straightforward with common hand tools. The oval head profile sits partially countersunk, providing a low-profile appearance with a slightly domed crown. Intended for use by machinists, electricians, HVAC technicians, and general maintenance professionals working with light-gauge assemblies.

This screw is suited for residential and commercial applications where a UNC 6-32 thread is specified. Common uses include panel assembly, terminal block fastening, electronic enclosures, switchgear, and light mechanical fixtures where brass is preferred over steel to avoid galvanic corrosion or for non-magnetic requirements. The 3/8-inch overall length accommodates thin to medium material stacks without bottoming out in standard threaded inserts. This item ships in a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per order.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 6-32 UNC oval head machine screw compatible with any tapped hole or threaded insert conforming to the 6-32 Unified National Coarse thread specification.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a standard flathead screwdriver sized to the screw slot. Ensure the mating hole is tapped to 6-32 UNC specification before driving. When installing in soft or thin materials, avoid overtightening to prevent thread stripping or material deformation. For electrical enclosure applications, follow applicable NEC guidelines for panel and enclosure assembly.
