Value Collection 42745 Hex Socket Cap Screw M6x1 60mm

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 42745 is a metric hex socket cap screw designed for high-strength fastening applications. It features an M6 x 1.00 thread size with a 60 mm length under head and is partially threaded. Manufactured from alloy steel with a black oxide finish, this fastener meets DIN 912 and ISO 898-1 standards and carries a material grade of 12.9, indicating exceptionally high tensile strength. It is driven with a hex (Allen) key and suits applications where a flush or low-profile head profile is required. Licensed tradespeople and industrial assemblers working with precision mechanical assemblies rely on this grade for critical joints.

This screw is suited for use in mechanical assemblies, machine tooling, jig and fixture construction, and general industrial equipment. The M6 x 1.00 thread pitch is a standard metric size widely used in light-to-medium structural connections. The black oxide coating provides mild corrosion resistance and reduces light reflection, making it appropriate for indoor mechanical environments and equipment where surface appearance matters alongside strength.

Key Features

• M6 x 1.00 metric thread with 60 mm length under head for medium-depth fastening
• Alloy steel construction with 12.9 material grade for high tensile and proof load strength
• Black oxide finish for mild corrosion resistance and low-glare surface
• Partially threaded shank allows for clamping force without thread engagement through the full grip length
• Hex socket drive requires a standard hex key or Allen driver for installation
• Conforms to DIN 912 and ISO 898-1 fastener standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard DIN 912 metric hex socket cap screw compatible with M6 x 1.00 threaded holes in machinery, equipment frames, and mechanical assemblies requiring a 12.9 grade fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a properly sized hex key or Allen socket driver sized for M6 socket cap screws. Ensure threaded holes are clean and free of debris before driving. Follow the equipment manufacturer's torque specifications for M6 grade 12.9 fasteners as specified in the applicable service documentation. Do not substitute a lower-grade fastener in joints designed for 12.9-rated hardware.
