Value Collection BOEC14012wHex Elevator Bolt 1/4-20

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BOEC14012wHex is a Grade 2 steel elevator bolt with a flat, broad head and a 1/4-20 UNC thread. The bolt measures 3/4 inches in length under the head, with a head diameter ranging from 0.969 inches to 1.008 inches (nominal 31/32 inches). Elevator bolts are designed to fasten conveyor belts and similar flat-surface assemblies where the wide, countersunk head must sit flush and resist pull-through. Maintenance mechanics and industrial installers are the primary users of this fastener type.

This elevator bolt is suited for light-to-medium duty conveyor belt applications, bucket elevator systems, and other industrial assembly work where a flush seating surface is required. The uncoated finish makes it appropriate for dry indoor environments or situations where a secondary coating or plating will be applied on-site. The 1/4-20 UNC thread is a standard coarse-pitch pattern compatible with common nuts and threaded inserts at this diameter. Orders are fulfilled in multiples of 100 pieces, with each package containing 1 bolt at the unit level.

Key Features

• Flat, wide elevator-style head provides a large bearing surface to resist pull-through in belt and panel applications
• 1/4-20 UNC coarse thread for broad compatibility with standard hardware
• Grade 2 steel construction meets general-purpose mechanical fastener requirements
• Uncoated finish allows field application of primers, platings, or secondary coatings
• Head diameter from 0.969 to 1.008 inches seats flush in standard elevator bolt holes

Compatibility

Designed as a standard elevator bolt for use in conveyor belt assemblies, bucket elevators, and flat-panel fastening applications requiring a 1/4-20 UNC thread and a flush-seating flat head.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by maintenance mechanics or millwrights working on conveyor or material-handling equipment. Shut down and lock out all power to conveyor or belt machinery before replacing or installing fasteners per LOTO procedures. Use a standard hex nut or flange nut on the opposite side of the belt or panel and tighten with an appropriate wrench or socket. Do not overtighten Grade 2 fasteners, as they have lower proof-load ratings than higher-grade hardware.
