Value Collection R63034022 1/4-20 X 3 in Pan Head Slotted Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63034022 is a 1/4-20 x 3-inch pan head machine screw with a slotted drive, manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish. The 1/4-20 thread designation indicates a 1/4-inch nominal diameter with 20 threads per inch, following the Unified National Coarse (UNC) thread standard. The pan head profile provides a wide, low-profile bearing surface suited to flush or near-flush fastening applications. Length is measured under the head at 3 inches. This fastener is installed by mechanics, electricians, plumbers, and HVAC technicians wherever a corrosion-resistant, reusable threaded fastener is required.

This screw is used in light to medium-duty mechanical assembly, panel mounting, electrical enclosures, equipment frames, and general maintenance applications. The 18-8 stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for environments with moisture exposure or mild chemical contact, including HVAC equipment rooms, plumbing chases, and outdoor electrical panels. It is sold individually but carries a minimum order quantity of 10 units per transaction.

Installation Notes

Install using a flat-blade screwdriver sized to the slot width; avoid oversized blades that can cam out and damage the head. Verify that the mating threaded hole or nut meets the 1/4-20 UNC specification before installation. De-energize and lock out any electrical equipment before fastening hardware inside panels or enclosures per NFPA 70E requirements. Do not overtighten stainless steel fasteners into stainless threads without anti-seize compound, as galling can occur.
