Value Collection 532278PR M16x2 Hex Socket Cap Screw 160mm

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 532278PR is a partially threaded hex socket cap screw in M16 x 2.00 metric sizing with a 160 mm length under head. Manufactured from alloy steel with a black oxide finish, it carries a material grade of 12.9, indicating high tensile strength suited for demanding fastening applications. The internal hex drive accepts a standard hex key for installation in confined or recessed spaces where a conventional wrench cannot reach. This fastener meets DIN 912 and ISO 898-1 standards. It is a common choice for industrial machinery, structural assemblies, and mechanical equipment requiring a reliable, high-strength threaded connection.

This screw is used across a wide range of industrial and mechanical applications including machine frames, hydraulic equipment, conveyor systems, and general-purpose fabrication. The black oxide coating provides a low-reflectance appearance and mild corrosion resistance in dry or lightly oiled environments. The partial threading is standard for longer cap screws of this size, allowing the unthreaded shank to bear shear loads. Typically installed by machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians in both shop and field settings.

Key Features

• M16 x 2.00 thread size with 160 mm length under head
• Material grade 12.9 alloy steel for high tensile strength
• Black oxide finish for low reflectance and mild corrosion resistance
• Partially threaded shank suitable for shear-load applications
• Internal hex drive for installation in recessed or confined spaces
• Meets DIN 912 and ISO 898-1 fastener standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard DIN 912 metric hex socket cap screw suitable for M16 x 2.00 threaded holes in machinery, structural steel, and industrial equipment assemblies requiring a grade 12.9 fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed using a correctly sized hex key or Allen driver; always verify the driver fits fully into the socket before applying torque to avoid rounding. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before fastening. Follow applicable torque specifications from the equipment manufacturer or relevant industry standards for grade 12.9 fasteners. Black oxide coatings do not provide heavy corrosion protection, so apply thread lubricant or anti-seize compound where moisture exposure is a concern.
