Value Collection CAI202502000-10LBBX Carriage Bolt 1/4-20

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION CAI202502000-10LBBX is a 1/4-20 carriage bolt with a 2-inch length under head and a square neck designed to resist rotation during installation. Manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish, this fastener provides moderate corrosion resistance suited for general-purpose indoor and sheltered outdoor applications. The square neck seats into pre-drilled square or round holes in wood, metal, or composite material, locking the bolt in place as the nut is tightened. It is a standard Unified National Coarse (UNC) threaded fastener commonly stocked and installed by carpenters, general contractors, millwrights, electricians, and plumbers for structural and equipment-mounting tasks.

This carriage bolt is used across residential and light commercial construction and maintenance work. Typical applications include wood-to-wood connections, deck framing, equipment mounting to unistrut or wood blocking, and similar structural fastening tasks where a smooth, rounded head is required on the finished face. The zinc plating provides a baseline level of corrosion protection, making it appropriate for dry or intermittently damp interior environments and sheltered assemblies.

Key Features

• 1/4-20 UNC thread for broad compatibility with standard hardware and nuts
• 2-inch length under head suits medium-depth fastening in wood or light structural material
• Square neck prevents bolt rotation during nut tightening without requiring a wrench on the head
• Grade 2 steel construction provides adequate tensile strength for general-purpose fastening
• Zinc-plated finish adds baseline corrosion resistance for dry and sheltered environments
• Smooth domed head delivers a flush, snag-free face on the visible side of the assembly

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/4-20 UNC carriage bolt suitable for use with compatible 1/4-20 hex nuts and washers in general-purpose wood and light structural fastening applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by carpenters, maintenance technicians, or general tradespeople using a standard socket or wrench on the nut side only. Drill the receiving hole to match the bolt diameter so the square neck seats firmly and prevents spinning. Do not apply torque to the domed head. Follow applicable building code requirements for structural fastener specifications when used in load-bearing assemblies.
