Value Collection 47568 M12x1.75 Hex Socket Cap Screw Din 912

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 47568 is a metric hex socket cap screw designed for fastening applications that require a recessed hex drive and a high-profile cylindrical head. With an M12 x 1.75 thread and a 70 mm length under head, this screw is partially threaded to allow proper clamping force in through-bolt and clearance-hole configurations. The fastener is manufactured from 18-8 austenitic stainless steel (Material Grade A2) and left bright and uncoated for a clean finish. Machinists, maintenance technicians, fabricators, and millwrights install this type of fastener across a wide range of mechanical assemblies and structural connections.

This cap screw is suited for use in industrial, commercial, and light structural applications where a flush-to-recessed hex drive is preferred over an external hex head. The partial threading makes it well suited for joining components where the shank must pass through a clearance hole before engaging a tapped bore or nut. The stainless steel construction resists corrosion, making it a practical choice for wet or mildly corrosive environments such as food processing equipment, marine assemblies, pump housings, and chemical handling fixtures.

Key Features

• M12 x 1.75 thread form with 70 mm length under head for deep fastening reach
• Partially threaded shank for proper clamping in clearance-hole applications
• 18-8 austenitic stainless steel, Material Grade A2, for corrosion resistance
• Bright and uncoated finish — no additional coating to interfere with dimensional tolerances
• Manufactured to DIN 912 fastener standard for consistent dimensional compliance
• Hex socket drive for use with standard metric Allen keys and hex bit drivers

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 912-compliant metric hex socket cap screw suitable for any tapped M12 x 1.75 bore or paired nut in mechanical, industrial, or structural assemblies requiring an A2 stainless steel fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a metric hex key or socket bit sized to the M12 cap screw drive specification. Verify that the mating thread is tapped to M12 x 1.75 before installation to prevent cross-threading. Power down and de-energize any associated equipment before fastening in electrical or mechanical enclosures. Follow applicable torque guidelines from a recognized fastener standard reference when a specific torque value is required for the assembly.
