Built from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish for basic corrosion resistance, this screw features a Type F point that cuts its own mating threads on installation. The 1-1\/4 inch length under head suits a range of light-to-medium duty metal joining applications. Sold in packages of 50, this fastener is a practical stock item for maintenance, fabrication, and general trade work where a reliable, self-threading hex drive fastener is needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis screw is suited for use in sheet metal, thin-gauge structural components, and fabricated assemblies where thread cutting is required. The hex head drive allows for installation with standard hex drivers or a wrench. Typical applications include HVAC cabinet assembly, electrical enclosure fabrication, mechanical equipment panels, and general metal fastening tasks encountered in trade service work. The zinc plating provides adequate protection in dry indoor environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-20 UNC thread size for broad compatibility with standard tapped and cut-thread applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eType F point cuts mating threads without a pre-tapped hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade 2 steel construction for reliable strength in light-to-medium duty use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZinc-plated finish provides basic corrosion resistance in dry indoor environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHex head drive accommodates standard wrenches and hex bit drivers\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePackaged in quantities of 50 for efficient stocking and repeated use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose thread cutting fastener compatible with standard 1\/4-20 UNC thread applications in light-gauge metal assemblies across HVAC, electrical, and mechanical fabrication work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by maintenance technicians, fabricators, or trade professionals using a standard hex driver, nut driver, or wrench. Ensure the receiving material is clean and free of debris before driving. Do not overtorque, as Grade 2 steel has lower tensile strength than higher-grade fasteners and the thread cutting action requires controlled torque to avoid stripping. Power down or de-energize any equipment before fastening into electrical enclosures or control panels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4-20 UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Under Head\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Type F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Grade 2 Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Zinc Plated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 50\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: -31840-11\/4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51703804625202,"sku":"-31840-11\/4","price":36.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/1387a1cbc85e69f037e155e448d18e22_b71abff8-aec0-4561-b5c5-d29928693b8f.jpg?v=1788418752","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-31840-11-4-hex-thread-cutting-screw","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
