Value Collection 42174 Hex Head Cap Screw M16x2 70mm Grade 8.8

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 42174 is a metric hex head cap screw designed for medium-to-high-strength fastening applications in mechanical assemblies, structural connections, and equipment fabrication. Manufactured from Grade 8.8 steel with a zinc-plated finish, this fastener delivers reliable tensile strength while offering basic corrosion resistance in moderate environments. The partially threaded shank follows DIN 931 and ISO 4014 standards, making it a recognized specification fastener for applications where thread engagement length and bearing surface consistency are critical. A 24 mm hex drive allows use with standard metric wrenches and sockets.

This cap screw is suited for use in general industrial maintenance, equipment assembly, and structural fastening tasks where a metric M16 x 2.00 thread pitch is specified. The partially threaded configuration is appropriate when a full-shank bearing surface is needed to resist shear loads or to align mating components before clamping. It is commonly installed by millwrights, maintenance technicians, and mechanical contractors working with metric-specification machinery and fabricated steel structures.

Key Features

• M16 x 2.00 thread size with 70 mm length under head
• Grade 8.8 steel construction for medium-to-high tensile strength
• Zinc-plated finish provides basic corrosion resistance
• Partially threaded shank per DIN 931 and ISO 4014 standards
• 24 mm hex drive compatible with standard metric tooling

Compatibility

Designed as a standard metric replacement or service fastener for any application specifying an M16 x 2.00 x 70 mm hex head cap screw conforming to DIN 931 or ISO 4014.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with metric fastener torque specifications for Grade 8.8 hardware. Always verify thread engagement depth and mating material specifications before installation. Use a calibrated torque wrench and apply the appropriate torque value per the equipment manufacturer or applicable engineering standard. Inspect the fastener and mating threads for damage or contamination before assembly.
