Value Collection BOEC34104wHex Elevator Bolt 1/4-20

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BOEC34104wHex is a Grade 2 steel elevator bolt with a 1/4-20 UNC thread and a 1-1/4 inch overall length. The ribbed, low-profile head measures 23/32 inch in diameter (0.719 to 0.758 inches) and is designed to seat flush in countersunk holes or slots, preventing rotation during assembly. The uncoated steel construction suits indoor mechanical and conveyor applications where standard carbon steel strength is acceptable. This fastener is a staple hardware item installed by millwrights, maintenance technicians, and general tradespeople.

Elevator bolts are commonly used in conveyor belt systems, grain handling equipment, bucket elevator assemblies, and agricultural machinery. The wide, flat ribbed head distributes clamping load across belt material or wooden components, resisting pull-through under dynamic loads. The 1/4-20 UNC thread accepts standard hex nuts and washers. This bolt size is suitable for light-duty to medium-duty conveyor and material-handling installations in both industrial and agricultural settings.

Key Features

• 1/4-20 UNC thread for compatibility with standard 1/4-inch nuts and hardware
• Wide ribbed head (23/32 inch diameter) resists rotation and pull-through in belt or panel applications
• Grade 2 steel construction provides adequate tensile strength for general-purpose fastening
• Uncoated finish — suitable for dry indoor environments or applications where coating is not required
• 1-1/4 inch overall length fits thin-material conveyor belt and panel assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-geometry replacement elevator bolt for conveyor belt systems, bucket elevators, and agricultural equipment that accept 1/4-20 UNC fasteners with a wide low-profile head.

Installation Notes

Elevator bolts are typically installed by maintenance technicians or millwrights servicing conveyor or material-handling equipment. De-energize and lockout/tagout all conveyor drive systems before replacing fasteners. Use the appropriate wrench or socket on the mating nut while holding the bolt head stationary to prevent spinning. Inspect the belt or mounting substrate for wear or elongated holes before installing new hardware.
