Value Collection 42023 Hex Head Cap Screw M5 X 0.80

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 42023 is a metric hex head cap screw designed for general mechanical fastening applications requiring a strong, corrosion-resistant threaded fastener. Built to Grade 8.8 steel specifications, this screw offers a tensile strength profile suited for medium-to-high load assemblies. The M5 x 0.80 thread profile with a 70 mm length under the head and partial threading along the shank makes it appropriate for through-bolt configurations where an unthreaded grip zone is required. The zinc-plated finish provides basic corrosion protection in indoor and light-duty outdoor environments. Installation requires an 8 mm hex wrench or socket driver. These screws conform to DIN 931 and ISO 4014 standards and are sold in packages of 50.

This screw is commonly used in machinery assembly, equipment fabrication, structural bracketing, and light industrial maintenance. The M5 thread size fits a wide range of metric-standard tapped holes and through-hole applications across manufacturing, automotive, and general mechanical service work. The partial threading is standard for applications where bolt shank engagement with a clearance hole is preferred over full-thread engagement. Trades handling metric equipment, machine tools, or imported mechanical assemblies will encounter this configuration frequently.

Key Features

• Grade 8.8 steel construction for reliable tensile and yield strength in medium-to-high load applications
• Zinc-plated finish for basic corrosion resistance in indoor and light-duty environments
• Partially threaded shank provides an unthreaded grip zone for through-bolt installations
• 8 mm hex drive compatible with standard metric wrenches and socket sets
• Sold in a 50-piece package with a minimum order quantity of 1

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style metric fastener for use in any application requiring a DIN 931 or ISO 4014 partially threaded hex head cap screw with an M5 x 0.80 thread and 70 mm length under the head.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic or maintenance technician familiar with metric fastener torque requirements for Grade 8.8 hardware. Always verify that the mating tapped hole or nut meets the same thread standard before installation. Do not exceed the recommended clamp load for the fastener grade and size, as overtorquing can compromise thread integrity. Clean and inspect the mating threads before assembly to ensure proper engagement.
