Metric Blue UST184252 Hex Head Cap Screw M16 X 2.00

Product Description

The METRIC BLUE UST184252 is a metric hex head cap screw engineered for high-strength fastening applications. Manufactured from Grade 10.9 steel, this screw delivers tensile strength suitable for demanding mechanical assemblies, structural connections, and heavy equipment. The M16 x 2.00 thread profile with a 120 mm length under head provides substantial grip length for thick flanges, brackets, and mated components. It is partially threaded, which allows the unthreaded shank to bear shear loads in close-tolerance holes. A 24 mm hex drive size accommodates standard metric wrenches and sockets. Installers across industrial maintenance, mechanical contracting, and heavy equipment service work with this fastener regularly.

This cap screw is suited for metric fastening applications in industrial, commercial, and mechanical settings where high-strength hardware is required. Typical uses include machinery assembly, structural steel connections, equipment mounting, and fabrication work where Grade 10.9 tensile ratings are specified by design engineers. The partially threaded shank makes it appropriate for applications requiring a shoulder or bearing surface under the head. Compliance with ASME B18.2.3.1M, DIN 931, DIN 933, and SAE J1199 standards makes it interchangeable with hardware specified to those standards.

Key Features

• Grade 10.9 steel construction for high tensile and proof load strength
• M16 x 2.00 metric thread with 120 mm length under head
• Partially threaded shank for shear load resistance and close-tolerance fit
• 24 mm hex drive compatible with standard metric wrenches and impact sockets
• Meets ASME B18.2.3.1M, DIN 931, DIN 933, and SAE J1199 standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard metric hex head cap screw conforming to ASME B18.2.3.1M, DIN 931, DIN 933, and SAE J1199, making it interchangeable with any application calling for an M16 x 2.00 x 120 mm Grade 10.9 partially threaded hex cap screw to those specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic or millwright following the fastener torque specifications provided by the equipment or structure manufacturer for Grade 10.9 M16 hardware. Always use a calibrated torque wrench and confirm the mating thread condition before installation. Do not mix metric and inch-series fasteners in the same assembly. Follow applicable ASME or OEM specifications for lubrication, thread engagement length, and torque procedure.
