Value Collection MP92310 Hex Head Cap Screw 1/4-20

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MP92310 is a 1/4-20 UNC hex head cap screw designed for general-purpose fastening in corrosion-resistant applications. Measuring 2.5 inches in length under the head with a 7/16-inch hex drive, this fastener is manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel, providing solid resistance to rust, oxidation, and mild chemical exposure. The 1/4-20 UNC thread standard ensures broad compatibility with standard tapped holes and nuts. This screw is well suited for HVAC equipment panels, plumbing fixture brackets, electrical enclosures, and pool equipment assemblies where moisture exposure is a factor.

This hex head cap screw is appropriate for use in residential and light commercial trade applications where a corrosion-resistant fastener is required. HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and pool service professionals commonly use 18-8 stainless hardware when securing equipment covers, strut channels, or mounting brackets in wet or outdoor environments. The 1/4-20 thread size is one of the most common inch-series thread specifications, making this screw a practical stock item for service vehicles and shop inventory.

Key Features

• 18-8 stainless steel construction resists corrosion and oxidation in wet or outdoor environments

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series hex head cap screw for use with any 1/4-20 UNC tapped hole or compatible nut across HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and pool equipment applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hand-threading into a pre-tapped 1/4-20 UNC hole or with a corresponding nut, then tightening with a 7/16-inch wrench or socket driver. Ensure the mating thread is clean and free of debris before installation to avoid cross-threading. When used on live equipment enclosures or panels, de-energize or isolate the system per applicable NEC or equipment manufacturer guidelines before fastening. Do not over-torque stainless steel fasteners, as the material is susceptible to galling without proper lubrication.
