Value Collection 2852 Flat Socket Cap Screw M8x1.25 30mm

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 2852 is an M8x1.25 flat socket cap screw manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel and conforming to DIN 7991. The screw features a 90-degree flat head with a 5 mm hex socket drive and is fully threaded along its 30 mm overall length. The 18-8 stainless steel construction provides solid corrosion resistance suitable for general industrial, mechanical, and structural fastening applications. Machinists, millwrights, maintenance technicians, and fabricators use this fastener where a flush or countersunk head profile is required without protrusion above the mating surface.

This flat socket cap screw is suited for metric assemblies requiring a countersunk fastener with a hex socket drive. The DIN 7991 standard ensures dimensional consistency for use in machinery, equipment enclosures, fixtures, and fabricated assemblies. The fully threaded shank makes this screw effective in through-hole and blind-hole applications where maximum thread engagement along the full length is needed. It is commonly specified in industrial maintenance, OEM equipment assembly, and precision fabrication environments.

Key Features

• 90-degree flat head profile allows flush or countersunk installation
• 5 mm hex socket drive for use with standard Allen wrenches or hex bits
• Fully threaded M8x1.25 shank provides maximum thread engagement
• 18-8 stainless steel construction offers corrosion resistance in general-duty environments
• Conforms to DIN 7991 for consistent metric dimensional standards
• 30 mm overall length suits a range of through-hole and tapped-hole applications

Compatibility

Designed for use in metric-threaded assemblies requiring an M8x1.25 countersunk fastener conforming to DIN 7991 dimensional standards.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed using a 5 mm hex key or socket driver. Ensure the mating hole is properly countersunk to match the 90-degree flat head angle before driving the fastener. Do not overtighten stainless steel fasteners, as galling can occur; applying an anti-seize compound to the threads is standard practice in many applications. Torque to values appropriate for M8 18-8 stainless steel per the applicable assembly specification.
