Value Collection W57342PS 6-32 X 1-1/4 Flat Head Phillips Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION W57342PS is a 6-32 x 1-1/4 inch overall length flat head Phillips machine screw manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish. The flat head profile sits flush with or below the mating surface when countersunk, making it a standard choice for panel assemblies, electrical enclosures, and light structural fastening tasks. The unified coarse thread (UNC) form provides reliable engagement in tapped holes across a wide range of base materials. Electricians, HVAC technicians, and general maintenance professionals regularly use screws of this type when assembling or servicing equipment cabinets and control panels.

This screw is suited for use in residential and commercial trade applications where corrosion resistance and a flush fastening profile are required. Grade 316 stainless steel offers superior resistance to moisture, chlorides, and mild chemical exposure compared to 304 grade material, making it appropriate for outdoor enclosures, coastal installations, and equipment in damp mechanical rooms. The Phillips drive accepts standard hand drivers and power bits for fast installation.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 6-32 UNC flat head Phillips machine screw for use in electrical panels, HVAC equipment cabinets, control enclosures, and general trade assembly applications requiring a flush fastener profile.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hand driver or power driver with a Phillips bit sized for a number 6 screw. Ensure the receiving hole is properly tapped to 6-32 UNC or that a threaded insert is in place before driving. Countersink the mating material to the correct flat head angle to achieve a flush seating surface. Avoid over-torquing stainless fasteners, as stainless steel is susceptible to galling during installation.
