Value Collection A210285 Button Cap Screw M8x1.25 10mm 25pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION A210285 is a fully threaded button socket cap screw designed for metric fastening applications requiring a low-profile head with reliable clamping strength. Built from 18-8 austenitic stainless steel (Material Grade A2), it delivers solid corrosion resistance in wet, outdoor, or chemically exposed environments. The hex socket drive accepts a 5mm hex key for secure torque application without slippage. At M8x1.25 thread size with 10mm of length under the head, this screw suits tight-clearance assemblies where a standard hex cap head would foul adjacent components. Supplied in a pack of 25, it fits well into any trade or maintenance stocking program.

This fastener is used across HVAC, plumbing, electrical enclosure, and pool equipment installations wherever a low-profile metric cap screw is specified. Common applications include panel mounting, equipment frames, bracket assemblies, and cover fastening on corrosion-prone or outdoor equipment. The button head profile distributes clamping load over a wider bearing surface compared to a standard socket head, making it a practical choice for softer substrates or thin sheet assemblies. Right-hand thread direction and 4G/6G thread fit class meet standard metric assembly requirements.

Key Features

• Button head profile provides low-profile clearance and wide bearing surface
• 18-8 Austenitic A2 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet and outdoor environments
• 5mm hex socket drive for precise torque application with standard hex keys
• Fully threaded M8x1.25 shank with 10mm length under head
• Conforms to ISO 7380 fastener standard with 4G/6G thread fit class
• Bright, uncoated finish — no additional surface treatment to affect thread fit

Compatibility

Designed as a standard ISO 7380 metric button socket cap screw compatible with any M8x1.25 threaded hole requiring a low-profile head and hex socket drive.

Installation Notes

Install using a calibrated 5mm hex key or hex bit driver; avoid oversized or worn keys that can round the socket. Clean and inspect mating threads before installation to ensure proper thread engagement. Stainless steel fasteners are susceptible to galling — apply an appropriate anti-seize compound to the threads when fastening into stainless or aluminum tapped holes. Always follow applicable equipment manufacturer torque specifications and relevant codes for the assembly being serviced.
