Metric Blue UST179764 Socket Cap Screw M6x1 55mm

Product Description

The METRIC BLUE UST179764 is a socket cap screw designed for high-strength mechanical fastening in precision assemblies. Built to DIN 912 standards, this screw features an M6 x 1 thread size with a 55 mm length under head and is partially threaded along its shank. Manufactured from alloy steel to a 12.9 material grade, it delivers the elevated tensile and proof load performance that demanding structural and machine-building applications require. The Metric Blue finish provides a uniform surface treatment. A hex socket drive ensures positive torque engagement with a standard hex key or Allen driver.

This screw is well suited for industrial machinery, automotive assemblies, tooling fixtures, and precision equipment where high-clamping-force fasteners are specified. The 12.9 grade alloy steel construction makes it appropriate for high-load applications in both OEM manufacturing and MRO service work. Installers typically encounter this size in metal-to-metal bolted joints where a flush or low-profile cap head is required. Minimum order quantity is 100 pieces.

Key Features

• DIN 912 fastener standard for dimensional consistency
• M6 x 1 thread with 55 mm length under head, partially threaded shank
• 12.9 material grade alloy steel for high tensile and proof load capacity
• Hex socket drive for reliable torque application with hex keys or socket tools
• Metric Blue finish applied over alloy steel body

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 912-compliant socket cap screw suitable for M6 x 1 threaded holes in metal assemblies, fixtures, and machinery requiring 12.9 grade fasteners.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed using a calibrated torque wrench and the appropriate hex key or socket bit sized for the cap head. Always verify that the mating threaded hole meets the DIN standard for thread engagement depth before fastening. Follow applicable mechanical and structural fastening standards for the equipment or assembly being serviced. Do not reuse fasteners that show signs of thread damage, corrosion, or deformation.
