Value Collection R88412340 Hex Cap Screw 1/4-28 316 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R88412340 is a hex head cap screw in the inch measurement system, sized 1/4-28 x 1-3/4 inches with a partially threaded shank. It is manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel and left uncoated, making it well suited for environments where corrosion resistance is a priority. The 1/4-28 thread designation follows the Unified National Fine (UNF) standard. Length is measured under the head. This fastener is installed by mechanical contractors, maintenance technicians, and trade professionals who require a reliable, corrosion-resistant threaded fastener for structural or equipment assembly applications.

This screw is appropriate for use in wet, marine, chemical-exposure, or food-service environments where Grade 316 stainless steel provides added resistance to chlorides and oxidizing agents compared to standard 18-8 stainless. The partially threaded shank helps draw mating components together and is common in flange, bracket, and equipment panel assemblies. It is sold individually but must be ordered in a minimum quantity of 5 units.

Key Features

• Grade 316 stainless steel construction for superior corrosion resistance in harsh or wet environments
• 1/4-28 UNF thread standard for fine-pitch engagement and reduced loosening under vibration
• Partially threaded shank draws clamped components flush without over-threading
• Uncoated finish maintains dimensional accuracy and avoids coating compatibility concerns
• Length measured under head: 1-3/4 inches
• Minimum order quantity of 5 units per purchase

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/4-28 UNF hex head cap screw for use in any application requiring a Grade 316 stainless steel partially threaded fastener in the inch measurement system.

Installation Notes

Install using a standard hex wrench or socket sized for a 1/4-inch hex head cap screw. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before installation. De-energize and lock out any equipment before fastening components to live assemblies. Do not overtighten, as stainless steel fasteners are susceptible to galling — apply an appropriate anti-seize compound to the threads when working with stainless-to-stainless connections.
