I want a brass machine screw pan head or round head(prefer pan head) slotted
1/4-20 and the hard part 2.25" long. I can find 2" and 2.5" but I can only find
stainless steel in the 2.25" length.

How many do you need?

Can probably special order them if you are willing to buy 500/1,000
minimum and wait probably 6-8 weeks since the almost certainly come in
for off shore.

Any thing from 50-499 could be trimed in a lathe or maybe a screw machine.

Anything below 50 would be hack saw time.

Cut the 2.5" off at 2.25 or is this just spam?

My first thought was hacksaw, or maybe even a grinder.

If it were spam it would be offering to lengthen it.

I would use maybe 300 or so a year.
forget hacksaw I use a steel shear (G) but just the hassle and time to cut
them all and sand the ends and buff off the bur is something I could live

I use an angle grinder. It's one of the few ways I have of cutting
screws without needing to re-form the thread afterwards. If you're
doing a lot, make up a cutting plate with a row of threaded holes in
it. Choice of cutting disk is crucial though, for a neat cut.

you don't want to cut brass with a angle grinder. well maybe not it may just
clog up the wheels.
but I don't want to have to cut them to size it gets old quick after the first

it's not a lot till you order say 100 then it's 82 bucks. I get boxes of 1" ones
for about 21. each. a little over double the length and quad the price.

Hell, they're brass. Jig it up on the bandsaw and cut 8 at once.
Sanding goes quickly. You or some kid you hire will be done in an
hour.

With a milling machine and a jig, you could do it pretty quickly.
Block 2.25" thick, drilled and tapped. Screws in from the bottom, mill
the ends off. No muss, no fuss. Beats playing bandsaw games...

Hammer or press, it works very nice.

Used something like that several decades ago, but haven't seen them since. The
one I used was a bit smaller, and we used it with a vise or press. Could cut a
number of screws at once.

over the round head and they are easy to get anywhere.

So don't. Put a nut on before cutting. After cutting run the nut off.
There, the thread is back where it's supposed to be (or nearly enough to
use).

The mill is in Milwaukee and I'd think you could find as good of a mill
locally for less than shipping would cost. But, let me mock up a jig
and see if it will do what I think it will do before we go further.
Did you say these are stainless, or brass screws that you're trying to trim?

That's what I'm thinking with a drilled/tapped block, it'll form the
thread back into shape when you back the screws out of it. Steve, will
the ends of these bolts be visible in your finished product? If
there's a burr there, will that need to be cleaned up?

no you won't see them so as long as they thread in easily it does not matter
what they look like.
