Value Collection 248515 M6x1 Hex Socket Cap Screw 45mm

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 248515 is an M6 x 1.00 partially threaded hex socket cap screw with a 45 mm length under head, manufactured from 18-8 austenitic stainless steel (Material Grade A2) with a bright uncoated finish. Conforming to DIN 912, this fastener is designed for applications requiring corrosion resistance and a clean, recessed drive profile. Installation requires a hex key or Allen driver sized for the M6 socket. The stainless construction makes it well suited for environments where moisture or chemical exposure would compromise a plated carbon steel fastener. Licensed tradespeople and industrial maintenance technicians are the primary installers.

This screw is used across a broad range of commercial, industrial, and mechanical assembly applications. The partially threaded shank provides positive clamping force when joining two components, allowing the unthreaded portion to act as a shoulder through the clamped material. Typical applications include machine frames, equipment enclosures, panel mounting, and general mechanical assemblies where a flush or below-surface head profile is required. The DIN 912 standard ensures dimensional interchangeability with other compliant fasteners of the same size.

Key Features

• M6 x 1.00 thread size conforming to DIN 912 dimensional standard
• 45 mm length under head with partial threading for secure clamping
• 18-8 austenitic stainless steel, Material Grade A2, for corrosion resistance
• Bright uncoated finish — no coating variability or thickness concerns on thread fit
• Hex socket drive accepts standard hex key or Allen driver tools
• Sold in minimum order quantity of 25 pieces per order increment

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard service fastener compatible with any M6 x 1.00 threaded hole or insert requiring a DIN 912 hex socket cap screw with a 45 mm length under head.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a properly sized hex key or Allen driver; use of an undersized driver risks rounding the socket recess. Verify thread engagement depth and hole cleanliness before driving. Apply thread lubricant or anti-seize only where specified by the equipment manufacturer, as stainless-to-stainless fasteners can be prone to galling if driven dry and overtorqued. Follow applicable equipment manufacturer torque specifications for M6 fasteners in the joint material being used.
