Metric Blue UST176285 Socket Cap Screw M12 X 1.75

Product Description

The METRIC BLUE UST176285 is a metric socket cap screw engineered for high-strength fastening applications in industrial, mechanical, and precision assembly environments. It features an M12 x 1.75 thread profile and a 65 mm length under head, making it suited for mid-depth fastening into machine components, fixtures, and structural assemblies. The screw is manufactured from alloy steel to material grade 12.9, which provides tensile strength appropriate for demanding bolted joints. It is partially threaded and driven with a standard hex socket tool. Licensed professionals, machinists, and maintenance technicians are the typical end users for this fastener type.

This socket cap screw is intended for applications requiring a flush or recessed head profile in tight clearance areas where a hex socket drive is preferred over external wrenching. Grade 12.9 alloy steel construction makes it appropriate for high-load, high-torque bolted connections in machinery, industrial equipment, hydraulic systems, and fabricated steel assemblies. The metric blue finish provides a degree of corrosion identification and surface protection. This fastener conforms to DIN 912 and ISO 4762 standards, which define the dimensional and mechanical requirements for hexagon socket head cap screws.

Key Features

• M12 x 1.75 thread size with 65 mm length under head, partially threaded
• Material grade 12.9 alloy steel for high tensile and proof load capacity
• Hex socket drive for use with standard Allen or hex key tooling
• Conforms to DIN 912 and ISO 4762 fastener standards
• Metric blue finish for surface protection and grade identification
• Socket cap head profile allows installation in recessed or close-clearance locations

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 912 and ISO 4762 compliant metric socket cap screw for use in standard M12 x 1.75 threaded holes in industrial machinery, structural assemblies, and precision equipment requiring grade 12.9 fasteners.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists, maintenance technicians, or millwrights using a calibrated torque wrench with an appropriately sized hex socket bit. De-energize and lock out all equipment before fastener removal or replacement in live assemblies. Do not substitute a lower-grade fastener in applications spec-rated for 12.9. Thread engagement depth should meet the requirements of the applicable engineering standard for the material being fastened.
