The Abbey Trading R060503 1/4" x 2" Hex Screw is a sturdy, professional-grade fastener designed for secure mounting, particularly suited for attaching gate hardware where a clean, uniform look is desired.

• Hex Head Design: The hexagonal head allows for the use of a socket or wrench, enabling higher torque during installation compared to standard Phillips or slotted screws. This ensures a tighter, more secure fit, which is essential for hardware that experiences vibration or stress, such as hinges and latches.

• Dimensions (1/4" x 2"): The 1/4-inch diameter provides excellent shear strength for mounting heavier hardware, while the 2-inch length offers sufficient penetration into wood or masonry (when used with appropriate anchors) to provide a firm, long-lasting anchor point.

• Black Finish: The black finish is specifically selected to match decorative black gate hardware (such as the Abbey hinges and handles previously listed). This creates a cohesive, high-end appearance by camouflaging the fastener against dark hardware surfaces.

• 18-Pack Convenience: Selling these in a 18-pack is ideal for small-to-medium hardware installations, ensuring you have enough fasteners to complete a standard gate project (like mounting a pair of hinges or a latch) without being left short or having a large excess of loose screws.
