Value Collection C701034 Hex Head Cap Screw 1/4-20

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION C701034 is a 1/4-20 hex head cap screw designed for general-purpose fastening in mechanical, structural, and maintenance applications. This partially threaded fastener measures 4-1/2 inches under the head and is manufactured from Grade 5 steel with an uncoated finish. It conforms to ASME B18.2.1 standards, making it suitable for applications requiring a recognized dimensional and mechanical specification. The Unified National Coarse (UNC) thread form provides reliable engagement in standard tapped holes and nuts. Installers across trades rely on Grade 5 hardware for moderate-strength clamping where tensile performance beyond standard Grade 2 is required without the cost of Grade 8.

This hex head cap screw is used across a wide range of trade and industrial settings, including HVAC equipment mounting, electrical panel and enclosure assembly, plumbing fixture support, and general mechanical maintenance. The partially threaded shank provides a smooth bearing surface between clamped materials, which is useful in applications involving shear loads or where precise clamping without thread engagement through both parts is needed. Sold in packages of 50, this fastener is well suited for technicians who need a reliable supply of standard hardware on the job.

Key Features

• 1/4-20 UNC thread form for compatibility with standard tapped holes and nuts
• 4-1/2 inch length under head with partial threading for shear-load and clamping applications
• Grade 5 steel construction meets moderate-strength fastener requirements
• Uncoated finish suitable for indoor and protected environments
• Conforms to ASME B18.2.1 dimensional standard
• Package quantity of 50 for job-site or shop inventory

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/4-20 UNC hex head cap screw per ASME B18.2.1, compatible with any application requiring a 1/4-20 partially threaded fastener in Grade 5 steel.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a standard hex wrench or socket driver sized for a 1/4-inch hex head cap screw. De-energize or isolate any equipment before fastening or removing hardware on electrical or mechanical assemblies. Apply fastener torque according to the equipment manufacturer specifications for Grade 5 hardware at this thread size. Avoid over-torquing, which can yield the fastener or damage tapped threads in softer base materials.
