Value Collection R50000268 Carriage Bolt 10-24 1-1/2 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R50000268 is a 10-24 UNC carriage bolt with a 1-1/2 inch length under head, manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish. Carriage bolts feature a domed head and a square neck that bites into the mating material to prevent rotation during installation, eliminating the need to hold the bolt head while tightening. This fastener meets ASTM A307 standards and is suited for general-purpose fastening applications in wood, metal, and structural assemblies. Electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general tradespeople routinely use this style of bolt for equipment mounting, panel work, and light structural connections.

This carriage bolt is used in a wide range of residential and commercial trade applications. The 10-24 UNC thread makes it compatible with standard inch-system nuts and threaded inserts. The zinc plating provides basic corrosion resistance suitable for indoor and sheltered outdoor environments. Typical installation scenarios include securing junction boxes, mounting brackets, HVAC equipment frames, and similar light-load fastening tasks where a flush or low-profile head is required.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hand tool and does not require specialty equipment. Insert the square neck fully into the mating hole before applying torque to the nut to ensure the anti-rotation feature engages correctly. Always ensure the mating material hole is sized to grip the square neck. Follow applicable mechanical and structural codes for the specific assembly type being fastened.
