Value Collection 208856B Hex Head Cap Screw 1/4-20 3.5in 18-8 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 208856B is a 1/4-20 x 3-1/2 inch hex head cap screw manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel. It features a Unified National Coarse (UNC) thread form and a 7/16-inch hex drive. The 18-8 stainless steel construction provides solid corrosion resistance, making it suitable for fastening applications where exposure to moisture or mild chemicals is a concern. Length is measured under the head. This fastener is installed by HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and general trade professionals wherever a standard inch-series hex cap screw is required.

This fastener is appropriate for a wide range of residential and light commercial trade applications including equipment mounting, bracket assembly, panel fastening, and structural connections. The 1/4-20 UNC thread is one of the most commonly specified inch-series thread sizes in mechanical and trade installations. The 3-1/2 inch under-head length accommodates thicker assemblies or stacked material. This screw ships in a package quantity of one unit.

Installation Notes

Install with a 7/16-inch wrench or socket driver. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before installation. When installing stainless steel fasteners, apply an appropriate anti-seize compound to prevent galling during tightening. Follow applicable mechanical or structural codes for torque and fastener selection requirements.
