Value Collection 88548110 Hex Cap Screw 1/4-20 X 1-1/4 in Grade 5 Zinc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 88548110 is a 1/4-20 UNC hex head cap screw intended for general mechanical assembly and fastening applications. It is manufactured from Grade 5 steel with a zinc-plated finish that provides baseline corrosion resistance in typical indoor or sheltered environments. The screw measures 1-1/4 inches under the head and is partially threaded, which allows for proper clamping force when drawing two components together. These fasteners are sold in a package quantity of 50 and are suited for use by maintenance technicians, HVAC installers, electricians, and plumbers who need reliable inch-series hardware on the job.

This fastener is appropriate for light-to-medium duty mechanical connections in residential and commercial trade applications. Typical uses include equipment panel attachment, bracket mounting, and component securing in HVAC units, electrical enclosures, plumbing assemblies, and related mechanical systems. The 1/4-20 UNC thread is one of the most common inch-series thread sizes found in manufactured equipment across all trade disciplines, making this screw a standard replacement or repair fastener.

Key Features

• 1/4-20 UNC thread form — standard inch-series coarse thread for broad equipment compatibility
• 1-1/4 inch length under head — partially threaded for full clamping engagement
• Grade 5 steel construction — meets SAE J429 Grade 5 mechanical property requirements
• Zinc-plated finish — provides corrosion resistance for indoor and sheltered installations

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/4-20 UNC inch-series hex head cap screw for use in general mechanical, HVAC, electrical, and plumbing assembly applications where a Grade 5 partially threaded fastener of this length is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a standard hex wrench or socket driver sized for a 1/4-20 hex head fastener. De-energize equipment and relieve any system pressure before removing or replacing fasteners in live assemblies. Follow applicable codes and equipment manufacturer torque guidelines when tightening into tapped holes or with nuts. Do not substitute a lower-grade fastener where Grade 5 or higher is specified by the equipment manufacturer.
