Holo-krome 69606 Low Socket Cap Screw M16x2 X 50mm

Product Description

The HOLO-KROME 69606 is a metric low socket cap screw designed for applications where standard cap screw head height creates clearance problems. Manufactured from alloy steel at material grade 10.9, it delivers high tensile strength in a reduced-profile head. The black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance and a clean, consistent appearance. The M16x2 thread is fully threaded along its 50 mm shank length, measured from under the head, and is cut to thread fit class 6G for reliable engagement with standard metric threaded holes. The 12 mm hex socket drive requires an appropriately sized hex key for installation. This fastener is produced to ANSI B1.13M and ISO 4762 standards.

This screw is suited for industrial machinery, tooling fixtures, structural assemblies, and mechanical equipment where a low-profile fastener is required to clear adjacent components or mating surfaces. The coarse M16x2 thread pitch is the standard pitch for M16 metric fasteners, making it broadly compatible with existing threaded bores in metalworking and fabrication environments. It is appropriate for use in both original equipment manufacturing and maintenance or repair operations where high-strength metric fasteners are specified.

Key Features

• Low socket cap head profile reduces clearance requirements compared to standard socket cap screws
• Grade 10.9 alloy steel construction provides high tensile and proof load strength
• Fully threaded M16x2 coarse thread at 50 mm length under head
• Thread fit class 6G for consistent, standards-compliant thread engagement
• Black oxide finish for mild surface protection and reduced light reflection
• Conforms to ANSI B1.13M and ISO 4762 fastener standards

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit metric low socket cap screw for any application requiring an M16x2 coarse-thread fastener conforming to ISO 4762 and ANSI B1.13M specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic or maintenance technician using a calibrated 12 mm hex key or socket drive tool. Verify the mating threaded hole is clean and free of debris before installation. Apply appropriate thread lubricant or threadlocking compound per the equipment manufacturer's specifications. Do not exceed the torque rating specified for grade 10.9 M16 fasteners as defined in the applicable engineering standard for the assembly.
