Value Collection 42740 M6x1.00 Hex Socket Cap Screw Din 912

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 42740 is a metric hex socket cap screw designed for fastening applications that demand high tensile strength and a clean, low-profile head. Manufactured from alloy steel to material grade 12.9, it carries a black oxide coating that provides mild corrosion resistance and a uniform matte finish. The thread specification is M6 x 1.00 with a length under head of 35 millimeters, and the fastener is partially threaded. It is installed using a hex (Allen) key drive. Maintenance technicians, millwrights, machine builders, and fabricators use this screw wherever a strong, compact clamping fastener is required in metal assemblies.

This screw is suited for use in machinery, equipment frames, jigs, fixtures, tooling plates, and structural assemblies requiring a high-strength metric fastener. The 12.9 material grade places it in the highest common strength class for metric cap screws, making it appropriate for tight-tolerance assemblies and applications subject to vibration or dynamic loading. It conforms to DIN 912 and ISO 898-1 fastener standards, ensuring dimensional and mechanical interchangeability with other DIN 912 M6 x 1.00 x 35mm partially threaded cap screws.

Key Features

• M6 x 1.00 thread with 35mm length under head, partially threaded
• Alloy steel construction rated to material grade 12.9 for maximum tensile strength
• Black oxide finish for uniform appearance and mild corrosion resistance
• Hex socket (Allen key) drive for high torque application in confined spaces
• Conforms to DIN 912 and ISO 898-1 fastener standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard DIN 912 replacement or stocking fastener compatible with any tapped M6 x 1.00 threaded hole requiring a partially threaded hex socket cap screw with a 35mm length under head.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with an appropriate metric hex key or hex bit driver sized for the M6 socket. Always verify the receiving tapped hole meets DIN 912 dimensional requirements before installation. De-energize and lock out any equipment before fastener service or replacement on live machinery. Do not mix grade 12.9 fasteners with lower-grade hardware in the same joint without consulting applicable design or load specifications.
