Value Collection HNI20250-10LBBX Hex Nut 1/4-20 Grade a

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION HNI20250-10LBBX is a 1/4-20 hex nut manufactured from Grade A steel with a clear zinc finish. It features a right-hand thread cut to UNC standards, making it a standard fastener for general mechanical and structural assembly work. The nut measures 7/16 inches across flats and 7/32 inches in height. Licensed tradespeople and maintenance technicians use this fastener across a wide range of light-duty bolted connections where a corrosion-inhibiting zinc coating is appropriate. It is suited for indoor and light-exposure applications where Grade A material properties meet the load requirements of the joint.

This hex nut is used in residential and light commercial construction, equipment assembly, HVAC panel fabrication, electrical enclosure work, and general mechanical maintenance. Its 1/4-20 UNC thread form is one of the most widely encountered thread sizes in trade applications, fitting standard 1/4-20 bolts, threaded rod, and machine screws. The clear zinc finish provides a baseline level of corrosion resistance suitable for dry or minimally humid environments. It does not meet military specifications and is not intended for applications requiring higher-grade fasteners such as Grade 5, Grade 8, or stainless steel.

Key Features

• 1/4-20 UNC right-hand thread for compatibility with standard threaded fastener systems
• Grade A steel construction for general-purpose light-duty bolted joints
• Clear zinc finish provides basic corrosion inhibition
• 7/16 inches across flats fits standard 7/16-inch open-end or box wrenches
• 7/32-inch height suits shallow-clearance installations
• Does not meet military specifications — intended for commercial and industrial general use

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 1/4-20 UNC bolts, cap screws, threaded rod, and machine screws in general-purpose mechanical, HVAC, electrical, and construction assembly applications.

Installation Notes

Install using a 7/16-inch open-end, box, or socket wrench. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before assembly. De-energize any electrical equipment and shut off relevant systems before performing fastener work on live panels or mechanical assemblies. Do not exceed the load or torque ratings appropriate for Grade A steel at this thread size — consult applicable engineering references or fastener manufacturer data for specific joint requirements.
