Value Collection 97005 1/4-20 X 1-1/4 in Hex Cap Screw Gr5 100pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 97005 is a Grade 5 steel hex head cap screw in a 1/4-20 UNC thread size with a 1-1/4-inch length under head. It is partially threaded, meaning the shank is unthreaded below the head for a set distance before the thread begins. This design resists shear forces in structural and mechanical assemblies. The screw arrives uncoated, making it suitable for applications where a secondary coating or plating will be applied by the installer. Sold in a package of 100, this fastener is appropriate for contractors, maintenance technicians, and fabricators working with standard inch-series hardware.

This screw is used in general mechanical, structural, and equipment-assembly applications where a 1/4-20 UNC inch-series fastener is specified. The hex drive accepts standard 7/16-inch hex wrenches and sockets, making it compatible with common hand and power tools found on most service trucks and job sites. The partially threaded shank is particularly useful when clamping two materials together without thread engagement in the upper member. Applications span HVAC equipment mounting, plumbing bracket installation, electrical panel work, light structural steel, and general maintenance.

Key Features

• Grade 5 steel construction meets SAE J429 strength requirements for medium-strength fastener applications
• 1/4-20 UNC thread form is the most common inch-series coarse thread in North American mechanical assemblies
• Partially threaded shank provides a smooth grip section that resists lateral shear loading
• Uncoated finish allows for post-installation plating, painting, or use in dry interior environments
• Meets ASME B18.2.1 dimensional standard for hex head cap screws
• Packaged in quantities of 100 for bench stock, service vans, and job-site inventory

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series hex head cap screw for use in any application calling for a 1/4-20 UNC partially threaded fastener conforming to ASME B18.2.1.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a 7/16-inch open-end wrench, combination wrench, or socket driver. Apply fastener torque per the applicable engineering specification or code for Grade 5 hardware in the joint being assembled. Power down or de-energize any equipment before installing fasteners in electrical or mechanical assemblies. Do not substitute a coated or higher-grade fastener without verifying joint design requirements.
