Value Collection SBFI0-600370-100BX 6-32 Flat Head Slotted Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SBFI0-600370-100BX is a 6-32 x 3/8-inch flat head slotted machine screw manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish. The flat head profile sits flush with the mating surface when fully driven, making it well suited for assemblies where a low-profile or countersunk fastener is required. The unified national coarse (UNC) 6-32 thread pitch provides reliable engagement in standard tapped holes and threaded inserts. Licensed electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and general maintenance professionals rely on this screw type for panel covers, equipment enclosures, brackets, and light-duty mechanical assemblies. Sold in a box of 100 pieces.

This screw is appropriate for light- to medium-duty fastening applications across residential and commercial settings. Common uses include securing electrical junction box covers, control panel faceplates, HVAC equipment access panels, and sheet metal brackets. The zinc plating provides basic corrosion resistance suitable for indoor and sheltered installations. The overall length of 3/8 inches is measured from the top of the flat head to the tip, which is also equal to the full length under the head, confirming a fully threaded shank throughout.

Installation Notes

Install with a flat-blade screwdriver sized to match the slotted head to avoid cam-out or head damage. For use in tapped metal panels or enclosures, verify the receiving hole is countersunk to the correct angle to seat the flat head flush. De-energize all electrical equipment before fastening or removing screws on live panels, per applicable NEC guidelines. Do not overtighten in thin sheet metal or plastic standoffs, as Grade 2 steel fasteners can strip soft base materials.
