Value Collection C50000140 Elevator Bolt 1/4-20 Steel

Product Description

The Value Collection C50000140 is a zinc-plated steel elevator bolt designed for conveyor and bulk-material handling assemblies. It features a flat, broad head that seats flush against belt material, preventing pull-through under load. The 1/4-20 UNC thread and Grade 2 steel construction make it a standard choice for light-to-medium duty fastening applications. Overall length is 1-1/2 inches with a head diameter of 31/32 inches (0.9690 to 1.0080 inches). The zinc-plated finish provides basic corrosion resistance for indoor and sheltered installations. These bolts are sold in a package quantity of 100.

Elevator bolts are used primarily in conveyor belt systems, grain elevators, and bulk-material handling equipment where a low-profile, large-diameter head is required to spread clamping load across belt or strap material. They are also used in woodworking jigs, agricultural equipment, and light structural assemblies. Installation is typically handled by millwrights, maintenance mechanics, or general contractors working on conveyor and material-handling systems.

Key Features

• Flat, large-diameter head (31/32 inches) prevents pull-through in belt and conveyor applications
• 1/4-20 UNC thread for broad hardware compatibility
• Grade 2 steel construction for light-to-medium duty fastening
• Zinc-plated finish for basic corrosion resistance in sheltered environments
• 1-1/2 inches overall length suits standard belt and bracket thicknesses
• Sold in a 100-piece package for job-lot and maintenance stocking

Compatibility

Designed as a standard OEM-style replacement or new-installation elevator bolt for conveyor belt systems, grain handling equipment, and agricultural machinery that require 1/4-20 UNC fasteners with a flat, broad head profile.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by millwrights or maintenance mechanics during conveyor belt assembly or repair. Ensure conveyor power is fully locked out and tagged out before accessing belt fasteners. Use appropriate hand tools and a properly sized wrench or socket to seat the nut against the belt or bracket without over-torquing, which can deform the flat head. Inspect zinc plating for damage before installation in damp or outdoor environments and replace any bolt showing corrosion prior to use.
