Value Collection 120354 M3x0.50 Socket Cap Screw Din 912

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 120354 is a fully threaded hex socket cap screw designed for precision fastening in metric applications. Sized at M3 x 0.50 with a 16 mm length under head, this fastener suits compact assemblies where controlled clamping force and clean socket-drive access are required. Manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel (Austenitic Grade A2), it offers solid corrosion resistance in wet or mildly chemical environments. The hex socket drive allows for torque application with a standard Allen or hex key in confined spaces where a hex head wrench would not fit. It conforms to DIN 912, ensuring dimensional consistency for metric fastener applications.

This screw is well suited for light mechanical assemblies, enclosures, brackets, and component mounting found in HVAC equipment panels, electrical enclosures, pump housings, and similar trade installations. The M3 x 0.50 thread pitch and 16 mm length under head make it a common fit for thin-to-medium gauge metal components. Sold individually per package, with a minimum order quantity of 100 units, this fastener is intended for shop stock, service van inventory, or production-level use by maintenance and installation professionals.

Key Features

• M3 x 0.50 metric thread, 16 mm length under head for compact fastening applications
• Fully threaded shank for maximum thread engagement across the full grip length
• 18-8 stainless steel, Grade A2 for corrosion resistance in wet or outdoor-adjacent environments
• Hex socket drive for use with standard Allen keys in tight clearance areas
• Conforms to DIN 912 for dimensional reliability in metric fastener specifications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard DIN 912 metric hex socket cap screw suitable for M3 x 0.50 threaded holes in metal components, enclosures, and mechanical assemblies requiring a fully threaded stainless fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a correctly sized metric hex key or Allen driver; using an improperly sized driver risks stripping the socket recess. Ensure the mating threaded hole or nut is rated for M3 x 0.50 thread pitch before installation. De-energize and lock out any electrical or mechanical equipment before accessing fastener locations inside live panels or powered assemblies. Do not exceed the torque capacity appropriate for M3 stainless hardware as defined by applicable mechanical codes or equipment manufacturer specifications.
