Value Collection FHS1X0608-050BX M6x1 Flat Socket Cap Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION FHS1X0608-050BX is a metric flat socket cap screw designed for flush or countersunk fastening applications where a low-profile head and corrosion resistance are required. This screw features an M6x1 thread, an overall length of 8 millimeters, and is fully threaded from tip to head. The 90-degree flat head seats flush with or below the surface of the mating material, eliminating protrusions that could interfere with adjacent components. Driven by a 4 millimeter hex socket, installation requires a standard hex key or Allen driver. The 18-8 austenitic stainless steel base material meets Grade A2 classification, and the black oxide finish provides a uniform dark appearance while offering mild surface protection.

This fastener is suited for mechanical assemblies, fabricated enclosures, machine components, and equipment panels where a countersunk head profile is specified. The metric M6x1 thread pitch and DIN 7991 standard make it a common choice in precision assemblies, manufacturing fixtures, and any application requiring flush hardware in stainless steel. The black oxide coating provides a non-reflective surface finish that is often specified in optical, electronic, or aesthetic-sensitive assemblies. Trades including millwrights, maintenance mechanics, equipment fabricators, and industrial technicians regularly stock this fastener type.

Key Features

• M6x1 metric thread, fully threaded over the 8 millimeter overall length
• 90-degree flat head seats flush in countersunk holes per DIN 7991
• 4 millimeter hex socket drive for standard Allen key installation
• 18-8 austenitic stainless steel, Grade A2, for corrosion resistance in mild environments
• Black oxide finish for a low-reflectance, uniform dark surface appearance
• Conforms to DIN 7991 fastener standard for dimensional consistency

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 7991 metric flat socket cap screw for use in any M6x1-threaded countersunk application. Confirm hole angle and depth conform to 90-degree countersink geometry before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 4 millimeter hex key or socket driver. Countersink the mating hole to 90 degrees before fastening to ensure full head seating. Do not exceed the fastener's rated torque range for M6 stainless hardware as outlined in applicable DIN or ISO specifications. Stainless steel fasteners are susceptible to galling during installation — apply an appropriate anti-seize compound when required.
