Metric Blue UST176243 Socket Cap Screw M6x1 35mm

Product Description

The METRIC BLUE UST176243 is a partially threaded socket cap screw designed for precision fastening applications in industrial, mechanical, and equipment assembly environments. It features an M6x1 thread profile with a 35 mm length under head and is driven by a hex socket key. Manufactured from alloy steel to material grade 12.9, this fastener delivers high tensile strength suited to high-load or vibration-prone assemblies. The metric blue finish provides a protective coating while allowing quick visual identification in mixed-fastener environments. Licensed contractors, millwrights, and maintenance technicians working with metric hardware will find this screw well-suited for close-tolerance joint work.

This socket cap screw is used in applications requiring a compact, low-profile head with substantial clamping force. The partially threaded shank allows for precise bolt-hole alignment and shear load transfer, making it appropriate for machine frames, fixture plates, tooling jigs, and mechanical equipment assemblies. It conforms to DIN 912 and ISO 4762 fastener standards, which are common across European and metric-specification equipment found in manufacturing, HVAC equipment frames, and industrial pump or motor mounting. Sold individually, with a minimum order quantity of 100 units.

Key Features

• M6x1 thread size with 35 mm length under head for precise depth control
• Grade 12.9 alloy steel construction for high tensile and proof load capacity
• Partially threaded shank supports shear loading and accurate hole alignment
• Hex socket drive allows torque application in confined or recessed spaces
• Metric blue finish provides corrosion resistance and part identification
• Conforms to DIN 912 and ISO 4762 international fastener standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style metric fastener for equipment and assemblies calling for DIN 912 or ISO 4762 socket cap screws in M6x1 thread size with a 35 mm length under head.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed using a calibrated hex socket key or hex bit driver sized to the M6 socket cap head. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before driving the fastener. Follow equipment manufacturer torque specifications for grade 12.9 hardware, as over-torquing can damage threads in softer base materials. Power down or de-energize any machinery before accessing fastened assemblies per applicable safety and lockout-tagout procedures.
