Metric Blue UST179805 Socket Cap Screw M12 X 1.75

Product Description

The METRIC BLUE UST179805 is a partially threaded socket cap screw engineered for high-strength fastening applications. It features an M12 x 1.75 thread size, a 140 mm length under head, and a hex socket drive for torque application with a standard hex key or Allen driver. Manufactured from alloy steel to a 12.9 material grade, this screw delivers the high tensile strength and hardness required in demanding mechanical and structural assemblies. The Metric Blue finish provides a protective coating that aids in corrosion resistance and part identification. Weighing 0.29 pounds, it is sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 5 units.

This socket cap screw is suited for use in precision mechanical assemblies, industrial machinery, automotive, and structural applications where high-clamping force and tight tolerances are required. The partial threading is common in applications where a smooth shank section is needed for alignment or shear loading. Licensed mechanics, machinists, and maintenance professionals working with metric hardware specify 12.9-grade alloy socket cap screws for high-load joints where standard-grade fasteners are insufficient.

Key Features

• M12 x 1.75 thread size for compatibility with standard metric tapped holes
• 140 mm length under head, partially threaded for shank clearance and alignment
• 12.9 material grade alloy steel for high tensile strength and fatigue resistance
• Hex socket drive for precise torque application in confined spaces
• Metric Blue finish for corrosion protection and visual identification
• Socket cap head profile for flush or recessed seating in counterbored holes

Compatibility

Designed as a metric replacement or service fastener for applications requiring an M12 x 1.75 partially threaded socket cap screw with a 140 mm length under head and 12.9 grade alloy steel construction.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic or machinist familiar with metric fastener specifications and torque requirements. Always verify that the mating threaded hole is clean, undamaged, and compatible with M12 x 1.75 thread pitch before installation. Use the appropriate hex key or socket driver sized for the socket cap head to avoid stripping the drive recess. Follow applicable equipment manufacturer torque specifications and relevant industry standards when tightening 12.9-grade fasteners in structural or safety-critical joints.
