Value Collection 42768 M10x1.5 Hex Socket Cap Screw 40mm

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 42768 is a fully threaded hex socket cap screw designed for high-strength fastening applications in industrial, mechanical, and structural assemblies. The screw features an M10 x 1.50 metric thread with a 40 mm length under head, manufactured from alloy steel and finished with a black oxide coating for corrosion resistance. Rated to material grade 12.9, it delivers high tensile strength suitable for demanding load-bearing connections. Installation is performed using a standard hex (Allen) key drive. This fastener conforms to DIN 912 and ISO 898-1 standards, making it appropriate for precision-fit mechanical assemblies where verified dimensional and strength compliance is required.

This screw is used across a wide range of industrial and mechanical applications including machine frames, gearboxes, hydraulic equipment, jigs, fixtures, and structural brackets. The M10 x 1.50 metric thread pitch and 40 mm under-head length suit mid-range clamping depths in both light and heavy fabrication. The black oxide finish makes it a common choice in applications where mild corrosion protection and a non-reflective surface appearance are acceptable. This fastener is typically installed by machinists, millwrights, mechanical contractors, and maintenance technicians working to metric standards.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard DIN 912 metric hex socket cap screw suitable for any assembly specifying an M10 x 1.50 grade 12.9 fully threaded socket head cap screw.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified mechanical or maintenance personnel using a correctly sized hex key or socket driver. Always verify thread engagement depth and mating material strength before applying final torque. Follow applicable engineering specifications or equipment OEM guidelines for torque requirements. Do not mix metric and imperial fasteners in the same joint assembly.
