Value Collection R63036243 Hex Head Cap Screw 1/4-20

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63036243 is a 1/4-20 UNC hex head cap screw designed for threaded fastening applications where corrosion resistance is critical. Manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel, this fastener offers superior resistance to chlorides, salt water, and chemical exposure compared to standard 304 stainless. The screw measures 1-1/4 inches in length under the head with a 7/16-inch hex drive. It is suited for use in marine, coastal, pool, plumbing, and chemical processing environments where fastener integrity must hold under harsh conditions. Installers across multiple trades rely on Grade 316 hardware where standard zinc or carbon steel fasteners would corrode prematurely.

This hex head cap screw is appropriate for both residential and light commercial installations. Common applications include pool equipment mounting, marine hardware assembly, outdoor plumbing enclosures, and corrosion-sensitive structural connections. The 1/4-20 UNC thread pattern is one of the most widely used coarse-thread standards in North American trade work, making this fastener broadly compatible with standard tapped holes and hex nuts of the same thread specification.

Key Features

• Grade 316 stainless steel construction for maximum corrosion resistance in wet and chemical environments
• 1/4-20 UNC coarse thread for broad compatibility with standard tapped holes and nuts
• 1-1/4 inches length under head suits medium-depth fastening applications
• 7/16-inch hex drive works with standard wrenches and sockets
• Inch measurement system for compatibility with standard North American hardware

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/4-20 UNC hex head cap screw for use wherever Grade 316 stainless steel fasteners are specified in corrosion-resistant assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 7/16-inch wrench or socket. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before driving the fastener. When assembling stainless steel fasteners, apply an anti-seize compound to prevent galling, which is a common failure mode with stainless-to-stainless thread contact. Follow applicable mechanical or structural codes for torque requirements specific to your application.
