Value Collection KP24847 1/4-20 X 5 in Hex Cap Screw 316 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION KP24847 is a partially threaded hex head cap screw designed for fastening applications that require corrosion resistance and dimensional precision. Built to 1/4-20 UNC thread specification with a 5-inch length under head, this fastener is manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel with an uncoated finish. Grade 316 stainless offers superior resistance to chlorides and marine environments compared to Grade 304, making it a reliable choice in harsh or wet service conditions. It is installed by mechanics, millwrights, plumbers, and maintenance technicians across a wide range of industrial and commercial applications.

This fastener is suited for use in marine, coastal, chemical processing, food service, and general industrial environments where moisture or corrosive exposure is a concern. The 1/4-20 UNC thread form is one of the most common inch-series thread standards, making this screw compatible with standard nuts, threaded inserts, and tapped holes of the same specification. Partial threading allows the unthreaded shank to bear shear loads and provide accurate alignment in through-hole assemblies. Sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 25 pieces.

Key Features

• Grade 316 stainless steel construction for strong chloride and corrosion resistance
• 1/4-20 UNC thread standard for broad compatibility with standard inch-series hardware
• Partially threaded shank supports shear load bearing and precise hole alignment
• Uncoated finish maintains dimensional accuracy for close-tolerance fits
• 5-inch length under head accommodates thicker assemblies and stacked components

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 1/4-20 UNC nuts, threaded inserts, and tapped holes in inch-series fastener applications.

Installation Notes

Install using a standard hex wrench or socket driver sized for a 1/4-inch hex head cap screw. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before assembly. When working with stainless steel fasteners, apply an anti-seize compound to prevent galling during torque-up. Follow applicable mechanical and structural codes for torque requirements specific to the assembly.
