Value Collection 532002P M3 Hex Socket Cap Screw Alloy Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 532002P is an M3 x 0.50 metric hex socket cap screw designed for precision fastening applications requiring high tensile strength in a compact form factor. Manufactured from alloy steel with a black oxide finish, this screw carries a material grade of 12.9, indicating exceptional strength suitable for demanding mechanical assemblies. The fastener features full threading along its 5 mm length under head and is driven with a hex (Allen) key. It conforms to DIN 912 and ISO 898-1 standards, making it a reliable choice for engineers, machinists, and maintenance technicians working with metric hardware.

This screw is suited for use in light mechanical assemblies, machine component mounting, jig and fixture construction, and precision equipment maintenance. Its M3 thread size and 5 mm under-head length make it appropriate for applications with limited clearance or thin material stacks. The black oxide coating provides mild corrosion resistance in dry or lightly oiled environments. This fastener is commonly used in manufacturing facilities, machine shops, and industrial maintenance settings where DIN-standard metric hardware is specified.

Key Features

• M3 x 0.50 metric thread, fully threaded along the 5 mm under-head length
• Grade 12.9 alloy steel construction for high tensile strength in a small profile
• Black oxide finish for mild corrosion resistance and reduced light reflection
• Hex socket drive compatible with standard metric Allen keys and hex bit drivers
• Conforms to DIN 912 and ISO 898-1 fastener standards
• UNSPSC Code 31161501 for procurement and catalog classification

Compatibility

Designed as a standard DIN 912 metric hex socket cap screw suitable for M3 x 0.50 threaded holes in mechanical assemblies, machine components, and fixtures requiring Grade 12.9 alloy steel fasteners.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a calibrated torque wrench and the appropriate metric hex key or Allen bit. Ensure the threaded hole is clean and free of debris before driving the fastener. Grade 12.9 fasteners should not be substituted with lower-grade hardware in structural or high-load applications. Minimum order quantity for this item is 100 pieces per order.
