Holo-krome 69450 Low Socket Cap Screw M8x1.25 Alloy Steel

Product Description

The HOLO-KROME 69450 is a metric low socket cap screw designed for applications where a standard cap screw head height is too tall to clear adjacent components. Machined from alloy steel to a material grade of 10.9, this fastener delivers high tensile strength in a compact profile. The black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance and reduces light reflection in finished assemblies. The M8x1.25 coarse thread with a 6G thread fit class ensures consistent engagement with standard metric tapped holes. The hex socket drive measures 6 millimeters across flats, accommodating a standard hex key or T-handle driver.

This fastener is suited for mechanical assemblies, machine tool fixtures, industrial equipment frames, and precision fabrications where low-profile fastening is required. The 12 millimeter length under head and 5 millimeter head height make it appropriate in tight clearance zones such as recessed bosses, motor mounts, and panel attachments. It is commonly installed by millwrights, maintenance mechanics, and machine builders working to metric fastener standards including ANSI B1.13M and ISO 4762.

Key Features

• Low socket cap head profile at 5 millimeters head height reduces clearance requirements versus standard cap screws
• Alloy steel construction at material grade 10.9 provides high clamping force and tensile strength
• Black oxide finish for mild corrosion resistance and reduced surface reflectivity
• M8x1.25 coarse thread with 6G thread fit class for reliable engagement in standard metric tapped holes
• 6 millimeter hex socket drive compatible with standard metric hex keys and power drivers
• Meets ANSI B1.13M and ISO 4762 fastener standards

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit metric fastener for M8x1.25 coarse-threaded holes per ANSI B1.13M and ISO 4762 standards in industrial, mechanical, and fabrication assemblies requiring a low-profile socket cap head.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified mechanics or millwrights familiar with metric fastener torque practices. Use a calibrated 6 millimeter hex key or socket drive; do not use an undersized key as it may round the socket. Verify the mating threaded hole meets 6H tolerance class for proper 6G thread engagement. Follow applicable torque specifications from your engineering documentation or fastener manufacturer tables for 10.9 grade M8 hardware.
