Value Collection -42712-1 M4 Hex Socket Cap Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION -42712-1 is a fully threaded hex socket cap screw designed for precision fastening applications in industrial, mechanical, and fabrication settings. Sized at M4 x 0.70 with an 18 mm length under head, this screw is machined from alloy steel and finished with a black oxide coating for corrosion resistance. It carries a material grade of 12.9, indicating high tensile strength suitable for demanding clamping and load-bearing assemblies. Installation requires a hex key or Allen driver. Maintenance technicians, machinists, and mechanical assemblers are the primary installers of this fastener type.

This screw is suited for use in close-tolerance assemblies where a low-profile cap head and high clamping force are required. Common applications include machine frames, fixtures, tooling plates, and equipment panels. The M4 thread size and 18 mm under-head length make it a standard choice for light to medium-duty mechanical assemblies across general manufacturing and maintenance environments. Conforms to DIN 912 and ISO 898-1 fastener standards. Sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 50 units.

Key Features

• M4 x 0.70 thread size with 18 mm length under head for precise depth control
• Fully threaded shank provides maximum thread engagement throughout the grip length
• Grade 12.9 alloy steel construction delivers high tensile and proof load capacity
• Black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance and reduces light reflection
• Hex socket drive type compatible with standard Allen keys and hex bit drivers
• Conforms to DIN 912 and ISO 898-1 international fastener standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard DIN 912 metric hex socket cap screw for use in any M4 x 0.70 threaded hole requiring a 12.9-grade fastener with an 18 mm under-head length.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist, maintenance technician, or mechanical assembler using an appropriately sized hex key or socket bit driver. Ensure the receiving threaded hole is clean and free of debris before installation. Do not exceed the torque capacity appropriate for a Grade 12.9 M4 fastener as specified by the applicable engineering standard for the assembly. Inspect threads on both the screw and mating hole for damage before use.
