Value Collection 248964 M12x1.75 Hex Socket Cap Screw 55mm

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 248964 is a metric hex socket cap screw designed for secure fastening in mechanical, structural, and industrial assemblies. Sized at M12 x 1.75 with a 55 mm length under head, this partially threaded fastener accepts a 10 mm hex key drive for high-torque installation in confined or recessed locations. Constructed from 18-8 austenitic stainless steel (Grade A2), it provides solid corrosion resistance in wet, chemical, or outdoor environments. The bright, uncoated finish meets DIN 912 fastener standards. This screw is sold in multiples of 25 units per order.

This screw is suited for applications in HVAC equipment frames, pump and motor mounts, plumbing fixture assemblies, and general industrial fabrication where a metric thread profile and stainless steel construction are specified. The socket cap head style allows installation with a hex key in tight clearance zones where a conventional wrench cannot reach. Both indoor and outdoor installations are appropriate given the Grade A2 stainless material. Technicians and fabricators working to metric specifications will find this fastener compatible with standard metric assembly workflows.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style metric hex socket cap screw for use in any assembly specifying an M12 x 1.75 DIN 912 socket cap fastener in stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 10 mm hex key or hex bit driver rated for the torque demands of M12 fasteners. Always verify thread engagement depth and substrate material compatibility before final torquing, particularly in stainless-to-stainless applications where galling can occur — apply an appropriate anti-seize compound to the threads when joining stainless components. Follow the equipment manufacturer's torque specifications for the assembly being serviced. Confirm that partial threading engages correctly with the mating nut or threaded hole before driving to final seating.
