Value Collection R56000112 Hex Cap Screw 1/4-20 316 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R56000112 is a fully threaded hex head cap screw designed for fastening applications that demand corrosion resistance and mechanical strength. Built to 1/4-20 UNC thread specifications with a 4.5-inch length under head, this fastener is manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel, which offers superior resistance to chlorides, marine environments, and chemical exposure compared to standard 304 stainless. The uncoated finish maintains dimensional accuracy and is suitable for applications where coating thickness could affect thread fit. Installers in plumbing, HVAC, pool service, and marine trades reach for Grade 316 hardware where moisture and corrosive agents are ongoing concerns.

This fastener is suited for use in wet, outdoor, and chemically aggressive environments including pool equipment enclosures, coastal HVAC installations, process piping supports, and marine hardware assemblies. The 1/4-20 UNC thread standard ensures compatibility with standard inch-series tapped holes and nuts. The fully threaded shank provides maximum thread engagement across the full 4.5-inch length, making it a practical choice for through-bolting applications where grip length varies or where a nut and washer are used on the back side.

Key Features

• Grade 316 stainless steel construction for high corrosion resistance in wet and chemical environments
• Fully threaded 4.5-inch shank for maximum thread engagement along the entire length
• 1/4-20 UNC thread standard for compatibility with standard inch-series hardware
• Uncoated finish maintains precise thread tolerances and dimensional accuracy
• Hex head drive for use with standard wrenches and sockets

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard inch-series tapped holes, nuts, and threaded inserts requiring a 1/4-20 UNC fastener with a 4.5-inch length under head.

Installation Notes

Install using a standard hex wrench, combination wrench, or socket set sized for a 1/4-inch hex head fastener. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before installation. When installing into dissimilar metals, consider using an anti-seize compound appropriate for stainless fasteners to prevent galling. Follow applicable mechanical and structural codes for torque requirements based on joint material and application.
