Holo-krome 69618 Low Socket Cap Screw M16x2 90mm

Product Description

The HOLO-KROME 69618 is a metric low socket cap screw designed for applications where standard socket cap 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 appearance on finished assemblies. The M16x2 coarse thread with a 6G thread fit class ensures consistent engagement and reliable clamping force. Head height measures 10 millimeters with a 12 millimeter hex socket drive. This fastener is installed with a hex key or socket drive tool and is suited for machine assembly, tooling plates, and structural mechanical connections where head clearance is limited.

The 69618 is used in industrial and mechanical assembly environments requiring a low-profile fastener with high strength. The partially threaded shank with 90 millimeter length under head makes it appropriate for through-bolt and tapped-hole applications in steel and metal structures. Machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians working on machine tools, fixtures, and fabricated assemblies are the primary installers. The metric M16x2 thread size and ANSI B1.13M and ISO 4762 standards ensure compatibility with standard metric tapped holes in industrial equipment.

Key Features

• Low socket cap head profile at 10 millimeters height reduces clearance conflicts in tight assemblies
• Grade 10.9 alloy steel construction provides high tensile and proof load strength
• Partially threaded shank, 90 millimeters length under head, suits both through-hole and tapped applications
• 12 millimeter hex socket drive for standard hex key or socket tool engagement
• Black oxide finish for mild corrosion resistance and low-glare appearance
• Meets ANSI B1.13M and ISO 4762 fastener standards with 6G thread fit class

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style metric replacement or specification fastener for M16x2 coarse-thread tapped holes conforming to ANSI B1.13M and ISO 4762 standards in industrial machinery and mechanical assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 12 millimeter hex key or hex socket drive tool rated for high-torque applications. De-energize and lock out all equipment before servicing fastened assemblies per applicable safety standards. Do not use an impact driver without a proper hex socket bit to avoid stripping the drive recess. Verify thread engagement depth is sufficient in the mating tapped hole before applying final torque.
