Value Collection 1398 Hex Socket Cap Screw M8 X 1.25

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 1398 is an M8 x 1.25 metric hex socket cap screw designed for secure fastening in mechanical assemblies, fabrication, and equipment maintenance. It features a partially threaded shank 70 mm in length under the head, an internal hex drive, and is manufactured from 18-8 austenitic stainless steel with a bright uncoated finish. These characteristics make it well suited for applications where corrosion resistance and clean appearance matter. It meets DIN 912 dimensional standards and carries an 18-8 material grade designation, confirming suitability for mildly corrosive environments. The minimum order quantity is 10 pieces.

This screw is appropriate for use in HVAC equipment assemblies, pump mounting, light structural connections, and general mechanical fastening where metric thread specifications are required. The M8 x 1.25 thread pitch is a standard coarse metric size found across a wide range of trade and industrial equipment. Stainless steel construction makes this fastener a common choice when technicians need to avoid rust or galvanic issues in installations exposed to moisture or outdoor conditions. It is sold individually per package quantity with a minimum order multiple of 10.

Key Features

• M8 x 1.25 metric coarse thread for broad compatibility with standard metric hardware
• Partially threaded shank — 70 mm length under head
• 18-8 austenitic stainless steel (Material Grade A2) for corrosion resistance
• Internal hex (Allen) drive for high torque application in tight spaces
• Bright uncoated finish — no coating interference with thread tolerances
• Conforms to DIN 912 fastener standard

Compatibility

Designed as a standard DIN 912 metric hex socket cap screw suitable for use in any M8 x 1.25 threaded hole in mechanical equipment, panels, or structural components requiring a partially threaded fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a standard metric hex key or Allen-head driver sized for M8 socket cap screws. Ensure the mating thread is clean and free of debris before installation. Do not cross-thread — start fasteners by hand before applying torque. When installing stainless fasteners into stainless threaded holes, apply an appropriate anti-seize compound to prevent galling.
