Hex Cap Screw · 1/4-20 x 2 in - Grade 5 Zinc-Plated - Fasteners .250X2.00NCHC
SKU: S-.250X2.00NCHC
Steel hex cap screw in 1/4-20 x 2 in size with Grade 5 strength and zinc plating for general fastening in panels, brackets, and equipment assemblies. Commonly used where a standard hex head and wrench installation are preferred for electrical and light industrial work.
What this product is for
This 1/4-20 x 2 in hex cap screw is used to fasten steel components, brackets, panels, channel accessories, and equipment hardware in electrical and light industrial installations. The hex head suits wrench or socket tightening where access is available.
Use for
Use for bolting together metal parts, mounting brackets, securing enclosure hardware, and general service replacement where a 1/4-20 coarse thread fastener is required. Zinc plating helps provide basic corrosion resistance for dry indoor locations.
Avoid for
Avoid using this fastener where stainless steel, hot-dip galvanized hardware, or a listed bonding fastener is specifically required. Do not assume suitability for direct burial, highly corrosive washdown areas, or critical structural applications unless the full project specification confirms it.
Best for
Best for electricians, maintenance teams, and panel builders who need a standard hex cap screw size that is easy to source, easy to tighten with common tools, and suitable for general-purpose assembly work.
Installed in
Typically installed in electrical rooms, commercial tenant fit-outs, industrial maintenance work, control panels, equipment frames, and support assemblies in dry indoor environments.
Why this product exists
It provides a common coarse-thread fastening option for assemblies that need more strength than light machine screws and easier field installation than specialty fasteners. Grade 5 steel is commonly selected for general mechanical fastening where higher strength than low-carbon hardware is desired.
Compared with similar products
Compared with lower-grade steel fasteners, a Grade 5 hex cap screw is typically chosen for higher-strength general assembly. Compared with socket head screws, the external hex head is easier to install with standard field tools. Zinc plating is a practical choice for indoor service, while stainless steel is typically chosen when corrosion exposure is a bigger concern.
