Value Collection 204841 M8x1.25 Button Socket Cap Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 204841 is a fully threaded button socket cap screw designed for metric fastening applications requiring a low-profile head and flush or near-flush installation. Built from A2 stainless steel (18-8), this screw delivers solid corrosion resistance in both indoor and outdoor environments. It features an M8x1.25 thread, a 5 mm hex socket drive, and a 12 mm length under head. Compliance with ANSI/ASME B18.3.4M and ISO 7380 ensures dimensional consistency for controlled-assembly and production work. The bright, uncoated finish leaves the stainless surface exposed for maximum corrosion performance without added coating thickness.

This screw is suited for light industrial, mechanical, and structural assembly applications where a standard hex cap screw head would protrude or interfere with mating components. The button head profile keeps the fastener low relative to the work surface, making it a common choice in panel fabrication, equipment enclosures, machinery guards, and general metal assembly. It is installed by machinists, millwrights, maintenance technicians, and fabricators working with metric hardware. Minimum order quantity is 100 pieces.

Key Features

• M8x1.25 metric thread with 6G thread fit class for precise engagement
• Button head profile reduces protrusion compared to standard socket cap screws
• 5 mm hex socket drive for standard L-key or bit-socket installation
• A2 (18-8) stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance without plating
• Fully threaded along the 12 mm length under head
• Dual-standard compliance: ANSI/ASME B18.3.4M and ISO 7380

Compatibility

Designed as a standard ISO 7380 metric button socket cap screw for use in any application requiring an M8x1.25 fastener with a low-profile button head and hex socket drive.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 5 mm hex key or bit socket rated for the applicable torque. Right-hand thread direction applies — turn clockwise to tighten. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before installation. Stainless steel fasteners are susceptible to galling; apply an appropriate anti-seize compound when threading into stainless or aluminum tapped holes.
