Value Collection 534008P Flat Socket Cap Screw M3x0.5

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 534008P is a flat socket cap screw designed for applications requiring a flush or countersunk fastener profile. Built to DIN 7991 standards, this screw features an M3x0.5 metric thread with a 10.00 mm overall length and is fully threaded along its entire shank. The 2.00 mm hex socket drive accepts a standard hex key for installation and removal. Manufactured from grade 12.9 alloy steel with a black oxide finish, it delivers high tensile strength and moderate corrosion resistance in compact assemblies. Licensed tradespeople and precision fabricators working in mechanical, industrial, and equipment applications will find this fastener suited to tight-clearance, flush-mount installations.

This screw is appropriate for metric fastening applications where a 90-degree flat head profile is required to sit flush with or below the workpiece surface. Common uses include machine assemblies, fixtures, tooling plates, and light-structural components where protruding fastener heads are not acceptable. The M3x0.5 thread size targets small-bore applications in both production and maintenance settings. The black oxide finish provides a low-reflectance appearance and mild surface protection suitable for indoor or controlled environments.

Key Features

• Grade 12.9 alloy steel construction provides high tensile and proof load strength
• 90-degree flat head profile allows flush or countersunk seating in the workpiece
• 2.00 mm hex socket drive for precise torque application with standard hex keys
• Fully threaded shank along the 10.00 mm overall length
• Black oxide finish offers low reflectance and mild corrosion inhibition
• Conforms to DIN 7991 fastener standard for metric flat socket cap screws

Compatibility

Designed as a standard DIN 7991 metric flat socket cap screw suitable for M3x0.5 threaded holes in machine assemblies, fixtures, and fabricated components requiring a flush-mount fastener solution.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists, millwrights, or maintenance technicians using a 2.00 mm hex key or driver bit. The mating hole should be countersunk to the appropriate 90-degree angle per DIN 7991 geometry before installation. Ensure the threaded bore is clean and free of debris prior to fastener engagement. Grade 12.9 fasteners should not be substituted with lower-grade hardware in structural or high-load applications without engineering review.
