Value Collection R56000116 Hex Cap Screw 1/4-20 316SS

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R56000116 is a fully threaded hex head cap screw designed for fastening applications that demand corrosion resistance and structural integrity. Sized at 1/4-20 UNC with a 5-1/2 inch length under head, this screw is manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel and left uncoated, making it well-suited for wet, chemical-exposed, or marine environments. The fully threaded shank provides maximum thread engagement across the entire fastened length. Licensed tradespeople and maintenance professionals working in demanding environments rely on this grade of fastener where standard carbon steel hardware would corrode prematurely.

This fastener is appropriate for use in plumbing, HVAC, pool and marine equipment installation, food service equipment, and other applications where moisture or chemical exposure is a regular factor. The 1/4-20 UNC thread standard is widely used across residential and light commercial mechanical systems, making this screw a common hardware item for equipment assembly, panel mounting, and component securing tasks in the field.

Key Features

• Grade 316 stainless steel construction for superior corrosion resistance in wet and chemical environments
• Fully threaded shank along the 5-1/2 inch under-head length for maximum thread engagement
• 1/4-20 UNC thread standard for broad compatibility with standard nuts and tapped holes
• Uncoated finish — no risk of coating delamination in harsh service conditions
• Hex head drive for use with standard wrenches and sockets

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/4-20 UNC hex head cap screw for general mechanical fastening applications. Compatible with any standard 1/4-20 UNC tapped hole or nut where a fully threaded fastener is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by mechanical and maintenance tradespeople using standard open-end, box, or socket wrenches. Always ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before driving the fastener. Do not mix Grade 316 stainless fasteners with dissimilar metals in highly conductive or electrolytic environments without appropriate isolation, as galvanic corrosion may occur. Follow applicable codes and equipment manufacturer torque specifications during installation.
