Value Collection A996746 M16x2 Socket Cap Screw 10 Pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION A996746 is a fully threaded hex socket cap screw designed for high-strength mechanical fastening applications. Sized at M16 x 2.00 metric thread with a 55 mm length under head, this fastener is manufactured from alloy steel and finished with a black oxide coating for corrosion resistance. It meets DIN 912 and ISO 898-1 fastener standards and carries a material grade of 12.9, indicating a high-tensile-strength fastener suitable for demanding structural and machine assembly work. Each package contains 10 screws.

This screw is used in industrial, mechanical, and structural assembly applications where high clamp load and precise thread engagement are required. The hex socket drive allows installation in recessed or tight-clearance locations using a standard hex key or Allen driver. Grade 12.9 fasteners are commonly specified in heavy equipment, tooling, dies, hydraulic components, and precision machinery assemblies.

Key Features

• M16 x 2.00 metric thread with 55 mm length under head
• Fully threaded shank for maximum thread engagement
• Alloy steel construction with 12.9 material grade for high tensile strength
• Black oxide finish provides mild corrosion resistance and reduces light reflection
• Hex socket drive for installation in confined or recessed spaces
• Meets DIN 912 and ISO 898-1 fastener standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard metric hex socket cap screw for use in any application requiring an M16 x 2.00 thread, 55 mm under-head length, DIN 912-compliant fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed using a correctly sized hex key or Allen driver; use of an undersized key risks rounding the socket drive. Always verify thread pitch and fastener grade match the application specification before installation. Grade 12.9 fasteners should be torqued to the value specified in the applicable engineering drawing or equipment service manual. Apply thread lubricant or thread-locking compound only when specified by the assembly procedure.
