Value Collection 207577 Hex Head Cap Screw 1/4-20 2.5in 18-8 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 207577 is a fully threaded hex head cap screw designed for general fastening applications requiring corrosion resistance. Machined to a 1/4-20 Unified National Coarse (UNC) thread standard, this fastener measures 2.5 inches under the head and is manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel for reliable performance in wet, outdoor, or chemically exposed environments. The hex drive head accepts standard wrenches and sockets. It is commonly installed by plumbers, HVAC technicians, electricians, and mechanical contractors who need a corrosion-resistant fastener for equipment mounting, panel attachment, and structural connections.

This screw is suited for light industrial, commercial, and residential installations where stainless steel fasteners are specified. Typical applications include equipment frames, access panels, ductwork supports, electrical enclosures, and plumbing fixture mounting. The 1/4-20 UNC thread pitch is one of the most widely used inch-series thread sizes, making this fastener compatible with a broad range of tapped holes, nuts, and threaded inserts found in trade equipment and structural components.

Key Features

• 18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion and oxidation resistance
• Fully threaded shaft along the full 2.5-inch under-head length
• 1/4-20 UNC thread standard for wide compatibility with standard nuts and inserts
• Hex head drive accepts standard hex wrenches and sockets for secure installation
• Inch measurement system for use with standard imperial tooling

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or general-use fastener compatible with any application specifying a 1/4-20 UNC fully threaded hex head cap screw in 18-8 stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Install using a standard hex wrench or socket driver sized for a 1/4-inch hex head fastener. Ensure the mating tapped hole or nut is clean and free of debris before threading. Do not overtighten stainless steel fasteners, as the material is susceptible to galling — apply anti-seize compound when torque requirements are critical. Follow applicable mechanical and structural codes for the specific installation environment.
