Value Collection 42712 Hex Socket Cap Screw M4x0.70 Alloy Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 42712 is a fully threaded hex socket cap screw in M4 x 0.70 metric threading with a 16 mm length under head. Manufactured from alloy steel to material grade 12.9, this fastener delivers high tensile strength suitable for demanding mechanical and structural assemblies. A black oxide finish provides moderate corrosion resistance and a clean, uniform appearance. The internal hex drive accepts a standard hex key or Allen driver for installation in confined spaces where a conventional wrench cannot reach. This screw conforms to DIN 912 and ISO 898-1 fastener standards.

This screw is used across a wide range of industrial, mechanical, and equipment assembly applications. The M4 x 0.70 thread pitch and 16 mm length under head make it well suited for light machinery, brackets, enclosures, and precision assemblies where a strong, low-profile cap screw is required. It is a common choice for HVAC equipment panels, electrical enclosures, pump housings, and general mechanical assemblies requiring metric fasteners. Licensed trade professionals and assembly technicians working with metric hardware will find this screw a standard fit for many machine-thread applications.

Key Features

• Fully threaded M4 x 0.70 metric thread for maximum grip along the entire shank length
• Alloy steel construction at material grade 12.9 for high tensile and proof load strength
• Black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance and reduces light reflection
• Internal hex drive compatible with standard hex keys for installation in tight spaces
• Conforms to DIN 912 and ISO 898-1 international fastener standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard metric M4 x 0.70 hex socket cap screw suitable for any application calling for a DIN 912 or ISO 898-1 compliant fastener at this thread size and length.

Installation Notes

Installation requires an appropriately sized hex key or Allen driver; always verify the driver is fully seated before applying torque to avoid cam-out and fastener damage. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before driving. Powering down or de-energizing any equipment before fastener work is required when working near live electrical components. Grade 12.9 alloy steel fasteners should not be substituted with lower-grade hardware in load-bearing applications.
