Metric Blue UST184148 Flat Socket Cap Screw M16x2 35mm

Product Description

The METRIC BLUE UST184148 is a flat socket cap screw built to DIN 7991 standards, designed for applications where a flush or countersunk fastener profile is required. Machined from 12.9 grade alloy steel, this screw delivers high tensile strength suitable for demanding mechanical assemblies. It features a 10 mm hex socket drive and a 90-degree flat head that seats flush with or below the mating surface. With an M16x2 thread and an overall length of 35 mm, it is fully threaded from head to tip. The metric blue finish provides a distinctive identification coating. Licensed trades and industrial maintenance technicians working with metric machinery rely on this grade and specification for precision structural fastening.

This flat socket cap screw is suited for use in metric-standard mechanical assemblies, machine frames, fixtures, and industrial equipment where a low-profile countersunk fastener is required. The 12.9 material grade makes it appropriate for high-load joint applications in manufacturing, maintenance, and heavy equipment environments. It is sold individually and is compatible with standard metric hex socket drive tools sized at 10 mm.

Key Features

• DIN 7991 fastener standard for consistent dimensional accuracy
• 12.9 alloy steel material grade for high tensile and proof load strength
• 90-degree flat head seats flush in countersunk bores
• 10 mm hex socket drive for precise torque application
• Fully threaded M16x2 shank over 35 mm overall length
• Metric blue finish for easy metric identification in mixed-fastener environments

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 7991-compliant metric flat socket cap screw for use in M16x2-threaded countersunk applications in industrial machinery and mechanical assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic or maintenance technician familiar with metric fastener torque specifications for 12.9 grade hardware. Use a calibrated torque wrench with the appropriate 10 mm hex socket bit to achieve the required clamp load without overdriving. Ensure the mating countersink is machined to the correct 90-degree angle to achieve full head seating. Never reuse fasteners that show signs of thread damage, deformation, or corrosion.
