Value Collection -42745-5 M6x1 Hex Socket Cap Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION -42745-5 is a metric hex socket cap screw designed for high-strength fastening applications across industrial, mechanical, and structural assemblies. With an M6 x 1.00 thread size and a 100 mm length under head, this partially threaded fastener is driven with a hex (Allen) key socket. Constructed from alloy steel and finished with a black oxide coating, it meets DIN 912 and ISO 898-1 standards at a material grade of 12.9, indicating exceptional tensile strength suitable for demanding load-bearing joints.

This screw is suited for use in general industrial machinery, tooling fixtures, mechanical assemblies, and fabrication work where a recessed-drive, high-strength metric fastener is required. The partial threading allows for precise clamping force distribution in through-bolt and clearance-hole applications. The black oxide finish provides a moderate level of corrosion resistance and reduces light reflection, making it a practical choice for both functional and low-profile installations in shop and field environments.

Key Features

• M6 x 1.00 thread size with 100 mm length under head for deep-reach fastening
• Partially threaded shank allows accurate clamping in clearance-hole applications
• Alloy steel construction with 12.9 material grade for high tensile and proof load strength
• Black oxide finish offers mild corrosion resistance and a low-reflectance surface
• Hex socket drive (Allen key) for high torque input in recessed or tight-clearance spaces
• Manufactured to DIN 912 and ISO 898-1 fastener standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style and aftermarket replacement metric hex socket cap screw for M6 x 1.00 threaded applications requiring a 100 mm partially threaded fastener conforming to DIN 912 geometry.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic or industrial technician using a calibrated torque wrench and a correctly sized hex key or socket bit to avoid cam-out and fastener damage. Always verify that the mating thread is clean, undamaged, and properly tapped to M6 x 1.00 specifications before driving. Do not use impact drivers on grade 12.9 fasteners without verifying torque control capability, as over-torquing can cause brittle fracture. Apply thread lubricant only if specified by the equipment manufacturer, as lubrication significantly affects torque-tension relationships at this material grade.
