Value Collection R88448601 6-32 X 1/2 Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R88448601 is a 6-32 x 1/2 inch machine screw designed for general-purpose fastening in mechanical, electrical, and industrial assembly applications. This screw features a button head profile with a Pin-In Torx drive, which provides a low-profile appearance and tamper-resistant characteristics compared to standard hex or Phillips drives. Constructed from 18-8 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish, the R88448601 offers solid corrosion resistance in moderate environments. Thread specification is 6-32 UNC with length measured under the head at 1/2 inch. It suits applications where a clean, low-clearance fastener head is required.

This screw is appropriate for light-duty mechanical assemblies, electrical enclosures, HVAC control panels, and similar trade applications requiring a small-diameter UNC thread fastener. The 18-8 stainless steel construction makes it a common choice in environments with occasional moisture exposure. The Pin-In Torx drive is well-suited for installations where tamper resistance is a consideration, such as equipment panels or access covers. Sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 25 pieces, making it suitable for service kit restocking or small-batch assembly work.

Key Features

• 6-32 UNC thread standard for broad compatibility with standard tapped holes
• 1/2 inch length measured under the head for precise fitment in shallow assemblies
• Button head profile provides a low-profile, finished appearance
• Pin-In Torx drive offers tamper resistance over standard drive types
• 18-8 stainless steel construction delivers corrosion resistance in moderate environments
• Bright uncoated finish maintains dimensional accuracy for close-tolerance applications

Compatibility

Designed for use in any application requiring a 6-32 UNC thread machine screw with a button head and Pin-In Torx drive, including electrical enclosures, control panels, and general mechanical assemblies using inch-system fasteners.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a Pin-In Torx driver bit of the appropriate size for the 6-32 screw head. Ensure the mating tapped hole or threaded insert is clean and free of debris before driving the fastener. Do not overtighten stainless steel fasteners, as galling can occur when torque is applied too aggressively without lubrication. De-energize any electrical equipment before fastening screws in or near live panels.
