Value Collection 532538P M2.5x0.45 Hex Socket Cap Screw 16mm

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 532538P is a metric hex socket cap screw designed for secure, high-strength fastening in tight-clearance applications. Manufactured from alloy steel to material grade 12.9 and finished with a black oxide coating for corrosion resistance, this fastener delivers reliable clamping force in demanding environments. The M2.5 x 0.45 thread profile and 16 mm length under head make it well-suited for precision assemblies where fastener size and strength tolerance are critical. It is fully threaded from tip to head and driven with a 2 mm hex key. Minimum order quantity is 100 pieces per order.

This screw is used in light mechanical assemblies, instrumentation housings, electronics enclosures, jigs and fixtures, and other applications requiring metric fasteners with high tensile strength. The socket cap head style allows installation in recessed or countersunk locations where a standard hex head wrench cannot access. Electricians, millwrights, machine technicians, and general fabricators commonly install this fastener during equipment assembly or repair work.

Key Features

• Alloy steel construction rated to material grade 12.9 for high tensile and proof load strength
• Black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance and reduces light reflection
• Fully threaded M2.5 x 0.45 metric thread for maximum thread engagement in thin materials
• Socket cap head driven with 2 mm hex key for access in confined spaces
• Conforms to DIN 912 and ISO 898-1 fastener standards
• Sold in multiples of 100 pieces per order

Compatibility

Designed as a standard metric replacement or new-installation fastener for any application requiring an M2.5 x 0.45 fully threaded socket cap screw conforming to DIN 912 and ISO 898-1 specifications.

Installation Notes

Install with a 2 mm hex key or appropriately sized hex bit driver. Ensure mating threaded holes or nuts are tapped to the M2.5 x 0.45 metric thread standard before installation. Apply thread-locking compound if vibration loosening is a concern in the application. Do not exceed the rated installation torque for grade 12.9 fasteners at this thread size as specified by the equipment manufacturer or applicable engineering standards.
