Metric Blue UST184318 Hex Head Cap Screw M16 X 2.00

Product Description

The METRIC BLUE UST184318 is a metric hex head cap screw designed for high-strength fastening applications in mechanical, structural, and industrial assemblies. Built to Grade 10.9 steel, this screw delivers high tensile strength suited for demanding bolted connections. The M16 x 2.00 thread size with a 30 mm length under head and full threading along the shank provides maximum thread engagement across the grip length. A 24 mm hex drive allows for standard socket or wrench installation. Compliance with DIN 933 ensures dimensional consistency and interchangeability with other DIN-standard hardware.

This fastener is used in a wide range of commercial and industrial applications including equipment mounting, machinery assembly, automotive fabrication, and structural steel connections where metric hardware is specified. The Grade 10.9 rating makes it appropriate for high-load joints that require a stronger alternative to Grade 8.8 fasteners. It is commonly installed by millwrights, machinists, mechanical contractors, and fabricators working within metric-standard systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified mechanics, machinists, or mechanical contractors using a 24 mm socket or open-end wrench. Always confirm the mating thread specification and joint material before installation to ensure proper grade and size selection. Follow applicable engineering standards and torque specifications for Grade 10.9 fasteners as defined by the relevant design or maintenance documentation for your assembly. Inspect threads for damage or contamination before use.
