Value Collection 244719 Carriage Bolt 1/4-20 1 in Square Neck

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 244719 is a 1/4-20 UNC carriage bolt with a 1-inch length under the head, square neck, and uncoated Grade 18-8 stainless steel construction. Carriage bolts use a domed head and a square neck that bites into the mating material to prevent rotation during tightening, eliminating the need for a wrench on the bolt head. Grade 18-8 stainless steel provides corrosion resistance suitable for general-purpose fastening in applications where mild to moderate moisture exposure is expected. This bolt is a standard inch-system fastener sold individually per unit with a minimum order quantity of 25 pieces.

This carriage bolt is used in light structural, woodworking, and general mechanical assembly applications. The 1/4-20 UNC thread and 1-inch under-head length suit thin-panel connections, bracket mounting, and similar low-profile fastening tasks. The uncoated stainless finish makes it appropriate for indoor and outdoor installations where zinc-plated hardware is not preferred. Contractors, millwrights, and general tradespeople use this bolt type across a wide range of construction and equipment assembly scenarios.

Key Features

• 1/4-20 UNC thread for compatibility with standard inch-system nuts and tapped holes
• 1-inch length under head for thin-panel and bracket fastening applications
• Square neck prevents bolt rotation during installation without a secondary tool on the head
• Grade 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance
• Uncoated finish — no plating to flake or separate in service
• Minimum order quantity of 25 pieces per order

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-system carriage bolt compatible with 1/4-20 UNC nuts, washers, and tapped fittings used in general mechanical and structural assembly.

Installation Notes

Insert the bolt through a pre-drilled hole sized to allow the square neck to seat flush and resist rotation as the nut is tightened from the opposite side. Use an appropriately sized wrench or socket on the nut only — do not apply rotational force to the domed head. Ensure the mating surface material is suitable to accept the square neck drive feature. Follow applicable building or mechanical codes for fastener selection and torque requirements based on the specific application.
