Value Collection -94699-1 Machine Screw 1/4-20 X 4 in Ss 18-8 25pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION -94699-1 is a 1/4-20 x 4-inch pan head Phillips machine screw manufactured from grade 18-8 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish. This fastener uses Unified National Coarse (UNC) threading and measures 4 inches under the head. The pan head profile provides a low-profile, broad bearing surface suitable for general mechanical assemblies. Sold in a pack of 25, this screw is a practical choice for maintenance technicians, fabricators, and trade professionals who need corrosion-resistant fasteners for HVAC equipment panels, electrical enclosures, and similar structural or access cover applications.

This screw is suited for light to medium-duty fastening tasks in residential and commercial trade environments. The 1/4-20 thread size is one of the most common inch-series fastener sizes found in equipment enclosures, junction boxes, sheet metal assemblies, and mechanical support structures. The 18-8 stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for installations where mild corrosion resistance is required, including outdoor-adjacent or humid service environments encountered in HVAC, plumbing, and pool equipment installations.

Key Features

• 1/4-20 UNC thread for compatibility with standard inch-series tapped holes and nuts
• 4-inch length under head provides reach for thicker assemblies or stacked material
• Grade 18-8 stainless steel construction offers corrosion resistance in humid or wet-adjacent environments
• Pan head profile distributes clamping load across a broad surface area
• Phillips drive accepts standard No. 2 Phillips screwdrivers and power driver bits
• Bright, uncoated finish — no coating to flake or interfere with torque readings
• Pack of 25 units reduces per-fastener cost for routine service and installation work

Compatibility

Designed for use in any application requiring a 1/4-20 UNC pan head Phillips machine screw with a 4-inch length under head in inch-series measurement. Suitable as a replacement or stock fastener for equipment panels, enclosures, and mechanical assemblies that specify 1/4-20 inch-series hardware.

Installation Notes

Install using a No. 2 Phillips screwdriver or a matching power driver bit; avoid cam-out by applying firm axial pressure during driving. Ensure the mating tapped hole or nut is rated for 1/4-20 UNC thread before installation. De-energize any electrical equipment and shut off relevant service valves before accessing panels or enclosures that require fastener removal or replacement. Follow applicable codes — including NEC for electrical enclosures and IFGC for gas equipment panels — when reinstalling access covers or securing components.
