Value Collection FHS1X0812-050BX M8x1.25 Flat Socket Cap Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION FHS1X0812-050BX is a metric flat socket cap screw designed for flush or countersunk fastening applications requiring corrosion resistance. It features an M8x1.25 thread and a 12 mm overall length, with a 90-degree flat head profile driven by a 5 mm hex socket. Manufactured from 18-8 austenitic stainless steel meeting Grade A2 classification, it is fully threaded along its entire length. This fastener conforms to DIN 7991 and is suited for use in mechanical assemblies, equipment frames, and installations where the fastener head must sit flush with or below the mating surface.

This screw is used in a wide range of trade and industrial applications where a low-profile, flush-mount fastener is required. Typical scenarios include panel mounting, equipment housing assembly, and structural connections in environments exposed to moisture or mild corrosives where stainless steel is specified. The metric M8x1.25 thread pitch and DIN 7991 standard make it a direct fit in metric-dimensioned components across HVAC equipment, plumbing fixtures, electrical enclosures, and general mechanical assemblies. Sold with a minimum order quantity of 50 pieces.

Key Features

• 90-degree flat head seats flush in countersunk holes, eliminating head protrusion
• 5 mm hex socket drive for standard Allen key or hex bit installation
• Fully threaded M8x1.25 along the 12 mm overall length for maximum thread engagement
• 18-8 austenitic stainless steel, Grade A2, provides corrosion resistance in wet or outdoor environments
• Conforms to DIN 7991 fastener standard for consistent dimensional compliance

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style metric flat socket cap screw compatible with countersunk M8x1.25 threaded applications conforming to the DIN 7991 standard.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a 5 mm hex key or hex socket bit driver. Ensure the mating countersink is machined or drilled to the correct 90-degree angle to achieve full head seating. De-energize or depressurize any equipment before disassembling fastened assemblies. Apply appropriate thread lubricant or anti-seize compound when installing stainless steel fasteners into stainless or aluminum threads to prevent galling.
