Machine Screw · 6-32 x 1/4 in - Zinc-Plated Steel - Round Combo Head - Fasteners 6-32X1/4
6-32 x 1/4 in zinc-plated steel machine screw with a round combination slotted/Phillips head for electrical boxes, covers, and light-duty panel hardware. Commonly used where a short machine screw is needed in tapped holes; verify thread and required length before ordering.
What this product is for
This 6-32 x 1/4 in machine screw is used to secure electrical components, cover plates, device straps, and other hardware that accepts a 6-32 machine thread. The zinc-plated steel body helps resist light indoor corrosion, and the round combination head can be driven with either a slotted or Phillips screwdriver.
Use for
- Electrical boxes and covers with 6-32 tapped holes
- Device and accessory mounting where a short 1/4 in (6.4 mm) screw is required
- Indoor panel and enclosure hardware where zinc-plated steel is acceptable
Avoid for
- Outdoor, wet, or corrosive locations unless the installation specifically allows zinc-plated steel
- Applications requiring stainless steel, tamper resistance, or a different head style
- Installations where a longer screw engagement is required
Best for
Electricians and maintenance teams replacing missing or damaged 6-32 hardware in boxes, covers, and similar electrical assemblies. The short length helps where clearance behind the mounted part is limited.
Installed in
Typically installed in indoor commercial, residential, and institutional electrical work, including junction boxes, device boxes, covers, and light-duty enclosure hardware.
Why this product exists
It provides a common trade-size machine screw for electrical work where 6-32 threads are standard and a short 1/4 in length is needed. The combo head gives installers more driver options on service calls and retrofit work.
Compared with similar products
Compared with longer 6-32 screws, this 1/4 in length is better where shallow thread engagement or tight clearance matters. Compared with single-drive heads, a combination slotted/Phillips head is typically easier to service with the tools already on hand. Actual fit depends on thread condition, material thickness, and equipment design.
