Value Collection 202461768-AATP Ref Threaded Stud 1/4-20

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 202461768-AATP REF is a fully threaded stud fastener with a 1/4-20 thread size and a 1/2 inch overall length. Manufactured from carbon steel with a material grade of 3.6, it features a black oxide coating that provides basic rust resistance without adding significant dimensional buildup. Fully threaded studs like this one are used in a wide range of mechanical and structural fastening applications where both ends must accept a nut or be threaded into a tapped hole. Installation is typically performed by maintenance technicians, pipefitters, or general tradespeople working on light-duty assembly and equipment mounting tasks.

This stud is suited for light mechanical assembly, equipment mounting, and general industrial fastening applications. The 1/4-20 unified coarse thread profile is one of the most common thread standards in North American trade applications, making this stud compatible with standard hex nuts, wing nuts, and tapped components of the same thread specification. Its compact 1/2 inch overall length makes it appropriate for shallow-depth fastening in panel assemblies, brackets, and similar hardware configurations.

Key Features

• Fully threaded along the entire 1/2 inch length for maximum thread engagement flexibility
• 1/4-20 unified coarse thread for broad compatibility with standard hardware
• Carbon steel construction at material grade 3.6 for reliable tensile performance in light-duty applications
• Black oxide coating applied to inhibit surface rust and corrosion
• Uncoated finish preserves dimensional accuracy for consistent fit in tapped holes and standard nuts

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 1/4-20 threaded hardware including hex nuts, coupling nuts, and tapped components conforming to unified coarse thread specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation of threaded studs is typically performed by general maintenance technicians or tradespeople using standard hand tools or a stud driver. Ensure the mating tapped hole or nut meets the same 1/4-20 thread specification before installation. Do not over-torque, as carbon steel studs at this size and grade have defined tensile limits. Inspect threads for damage before installation to avoid cross-threading or fastener failure.
