Manufactured from alloy steel to a Grade 12.9 specification, this screw delivers superior tensile strength for demanding bolted joints. The M16 x 2.00 thread size and 140 mm length under head make it well-suited for thicker stock and heavy-duty connections. The Metric Blue coating provides corrosion resistance while offering a visual indicator that distinguishes metric fasteners from inch-series hardware on the job. Drive is hex socket, requiring an appropriate hex key or socket driver for installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fastener is used in industrial maintenance, machine building, equipment repair, and structural assemblies where metric fastening is required. The partial threading allows the unthreaded shank to align mating components before engagement, which is a common requirement in precision bolted connections. Machinists, millwrights, maintenance technicians, and fabricators routinely work with Grade 12.9 socket cap screws in these settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade 12.9 alloy steel construction for high tensile and proof load strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM16 x 2.00 thread size, partially threaded for precise shank alignment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e140 mm length under head accommodates thick material stacks\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMetric Blue coating provides corrosion resistance and metric identification\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHex socket drive for torque application with standard hex keys or socket drivers\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUNSPSC Code 31161501 for procurement and sourcing classification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard M16 x 2.00 partially threaded hex socket cap screw for use in any application requiring a Grade 12.9 metric fastener of this thread pitch and length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by qualified mechanical or maintenance personnel familiar with metric fastener torque requirements for Grade 12.9 hardware. De-energize and lock out any equipment before replacing or installing fasteners in machinery. Use a properly sized hex key or hex socket driver to avoid rounding the drive recess. Do not substitute inch-series drivers in metric hex sockets, as this can damage the drive and compromise the joint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: M16 x 2.00\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Under Head\u003c\/strong\u003e: 140 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreading\u003c\/strong\u003e: Partially Threaded\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex Socket\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Alloy Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12.9\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish Coating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Metric Blue\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0054 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31161501\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: METRIC BLUE\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: UST179808\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"METRIC BLUE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67912913125682,"sku":"UST179808","price":36.27,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/71f5e2e6c143b56433eac2df9951bdaf_60e31fdd-9d07-4eec-80e4-bc30c688817c.jpg?v=1791240740","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/metric-blue-ust179808-hex-socket-cap-screw-m16x2-140mm","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
