Value Collection 011165P Hex Socket Cap Screw 1/4-20 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 011165P is a hex socket cap screw designed for secure mechanical fastening in a wide range of industrial and trade applications. Manufactured from alloy steel with a black oxide coating, this fastener delivers solid tensile strength and basic corrosion resistance in controlled environments. The 1/4-20 UNC thread pattern and 2-1/2 inch length under head make it suited for medium-depth fastening tasks. Drive is a 3/16 inch hex socket. The screw is partially threaded, which helps resist loosening under vibration and allows proper clamping force when seating against a bearing surface. Installed with a hex key or Allen driver, this fastener is a standard choice for mechanical assemblies, equipment mounting, and fixture work.

This fastener is used across residential and commercial maintenance, HVAC equipment assembly, electrical enclosure fabrication, plumbing fixture mounting, and general mechanical work. The 1/4-20 UNC thread is one of the most common coarse-thread sizes in North American trade applications, making this screw widely applicable wherever a low-profile socket drive cap screw is required. The black oxide finish provides mild oxidation resistance and reduces light reflection on exposed fastener heads in finished assemblies. Sold in multiples of 100 per order.

Key Features

• 1/4-20 UNC coarse thread for broad compatibility with standard tapped holes
• 2-1/2 inch length under head for medium-depth fastening applications
• Partial threading promotes proper clamping force and vibration resistance
• 3/16 inch hex socket drive for use with standard Allen keys or hex drivers
• Alloy steel construction provides high tensile and shear strength
• Black oxide coating adds mild corrosion resistance and low-reflectance finish
• Meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM A574 fastener standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/4-20 UNC hex socket cap screw for use in any application requiring a tapped or threaded hole to that specification. Consult equipment documentation to confirm thread engagement depth and torque requirements before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a 3/16 inch hex key or ball-end Allen driver. Ensure the mating tapped hole is clean, free of debris, and cut to the correct thread specification before driving. Apply thread-locking compound or washers as required by the assembly specification. Always de-energize or shut down equipment before servicing mechanical fasteners on live systems.
