Value Collection MP30014 Hex Head Cap Screw 1/4-20 Grade 5

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MP30014 is a 1/4-20 UNC hex head cap screw manufactured from Grade 5 steel with a zinc-plated finish. At 3-1/2 inches in length under the head and partially threaded, this fastener meets ASME B18.2.1 dimensional standards. It is used across mechanical, structural, and equipment-assembly applications where a reliable, corrosion-resistant threaded fastener is required. Sold in a package quantity of 50, it suits both bench-stock replenishment and job-specific procurement. Zinc plating provides baseline corrosion resistance suitable for indoor and light-duty outdoor use.

This screw is appropriate for general mechanical assembly, equipment mounting, and structural connections in residential and light commercial settings. The 1/4-20 UNC thread form is one of the most common inch-series thread sizes, making this fastener compatible with a wide range of tapped holes, nuts, and threaded inserts encountered in HVAC equipment panels, electrical enclosures, plumbing fixture brackets, and similar trade applications. The partially threaded shank provides a grip section for clamping applications where full threading is not required.

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 1/4-20 UNC tapped holes, hex nuts, and threaded inserts in inch-measurement fastener applications across mechanical, HVAC, electrical, and plumbing equipment assemblies.

Installation Notes

Install using a standard hex wrench or socket driver sized for the appropriate hex drive. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before installation. Do not exceed the torque capacity appropriate for Grade 5 fasteners in the base material being fastened. De-energize or shut down any equipment before accessing fastener points on live electrical or mechanical systems.
