Value Collection MPKP44002 Hex Cap Screw 1/4-20 X 1 in Grade 8 50pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MPKP44002 is a fully threaded hex head cap screw designed for high-strength fastening applications in mechanical, structural, and industrial assemblies. Manufactured from Grade 8 steel with a zinc-plated finish, this fastener delivers the elevated tensile strength required in demanding trade and OEM applications. The 1/4-20 UNC thread pattern and 1-inch length under head make it a standard fit for a wide range of bolted connections. Each unit meets ASTM A354 BD specifications, confirming compliance with established strength and material standards. This package contains 50 screws, making it practical for job-site restocking or production-line use.

This screw is suited for use in HVAC equipment assembly, electrical enclosure mounting, plumbing fixture brackets, and general mechanical fabrication where a high-strength inch-series fastener is required. The fully threaded shank maximizes thread engagement in thin materials or short-depth tapped holes. Licensed trades and maintenance professionals working with steel structural members, equipment frames, or control panel assemblies will find this a reliable stock fastener. The zinc-plated finish provides basic corrosion resistance appropriate for indoor and sheltered outdoor installations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic, technician, or tradesperson familiar with proper torque procedures for Grade 8 fasteners. Always ensure the mating tapped hole or nut is rated for the same or higher strength grade to avoid thread stripping. Use the appropriate hex wrench or socket drive and follow applicable equipment manufacturer torque specifications. Inspect threads for damage before installation and do not use fasteners with crossed or stripped threads.
