Metric Blue UST176280 Socket Cap Screw M12 X 1.75

Product Description

The METRIC BLUE UST176280 is a socket cap screw designed for high-strength fastening applications requiring precise thread engagement and reliable clamping force. It features an M12 x 1.75 thread size with a 40 mm length under head and is fully threaded along its shank. The screw is manufactured from alloy steel to material grade 12.9, which indicates a high-tensile fastener suitable for demanding mechanical assemblies. A hex socket drive provides secure torque transfer with a standard hex key or Allen driver. The Metric Blue finish offers a recognizable coating consistent with the METRIC BLUE product line.

This socket cap screw is suited for use in industrial, automotive, machinery, and structural assembly applications where high clamp loads and precise torque specifications are required. Its fully threaded configuration makes it appropriate for through-bolt applications or shorter engagement scenarios where full thread contact along the entire shank length is needed. The M12 coarse thread pitch of 1.75 is a common standard in metric mechanical assemblies across a wide range of equipment and fabricated structures. This fastener ships individually but carries a minimum order quantity of 50 pieces.

• Conforms to DIN 912 and ISO 4762 fastener standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard metric socket cap screw conforming to DIN 912 and ISO 4762, suitable for use in any metric mechanical assembly requiring an M12 x 1.75 high-strength hex socket fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by maintenance technicians, millwrights, or mechanical assemblers using a calibrated torque wrench and the appropriate hex key or Allen socket. Always consult the equipment manufacturer's torque specifications for grade 12.9 M12 fasteners before installation. Inspect the mating thread in the receiving component for damage or contamination before threading in the screw. Do not use impact tools without verified torque control, as over-torquing high-grade fasteners can result in thread stripping or fastener failure.
