Value Collection -42723-1 M5x0.80 Hex Socket Cap Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION -42723-1 is a fully threaded hex socket cap screw designed for secure, high-strength fastening in mechanical assemblies, equipment fabrication, and maintenance applications. It features an M5 x 0.80 mm thread and an 18 mm length under head, manufactured from alloy steel with a black oxide coating for basic corrosion resistance and reduced light reflection. The drive type is hex socket (Allen), requiring a hex key or hex bit driver for installation. Material grade 12.9 indicates a high-tensile-strength fastener suitable for demanding load-bearing applications where joint integrity is critical.

This screw is used across a wide range of industrial and mechanical applications including equipment mounting, motor and compressor assembly, panel fastening, and precision component attachment. The M5 thread size is common in HVAC equipment, electrical enclosures, and light mechanical assemblies. Minimum order quantity is 50 pieces. This fastener conforms to DIN 912 and ISO 898-1 standards, making it a compatible replacement in metric fastener applications requiring a 12.9-grade socket cap screw.

Key Features

• M5 x 0.80 mm thread size, fully threaded along the 18 mm shank length under head
• Alloy steel construction, material grade 12.9 for high tensile strength
• Black oxide coating for basic surface protection and reduced glare
• Hex socket drive for high-torque installation with a hex key or bit driver
• Conforms to DIN 912 and ISO 898-1 fastener standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-metric replacement for M5 x 0.80 fully threaded hex socket cap screws conforming to DIN 912 and ISO 898-1 in grade 12.9 alloy steel applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by mechanical technicians, millwrights, or field service professionals using a hex key or hex bit driver matched to the M5 socket head. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before installation. Apply thread-locking compound where vibration is present, and follow equipment manufacturer torque specifications for M5 grade 12.9 fasteners. Do not mix metric and standard fasteners in the same threaded hole.
