Value Collection FHS1X12100-010BX Flat Socket Cap Screw M12x1.75

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION FHS1X12100-010BX is a metric flat socket cap screw designed for flush or countersunk fastening applications. It features a 90-degree flat head with an 8 mm hex socket drive, allowing installation with a standard hex key in recessed or tight-clearance assemblies. The fastener is manufactured from 18-8 austenitic stainless steel to Grade A2, providing corrosion resistance suitable for general industrial, marine-adjacent, and outdoor structural use. The thread size is M12x1.75 with an overall length of 100 mm, and the shank is partially threaded. It conforms to DIN 7991, the recognized standard for flat countersunk socket head cap screws.

This screw is used in mechanical assemblies, equipment frames, fixtures, and structural connections where a flush fastener profile is required. The M12 diameter and 100 mm length make it appropriate for medium-to-heavy load applications in fabricated steel assemblies, machinery guards, and mounting brackets. The stainless steel construction suits environments where mild corrosion resistance is a factor, including food processing equipment, marine hardware, and outdoor enclosures. Licensed trades including millwrights, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians routinely install fasteners of this type during equipment assembly and field service work.

Key Features

• 90-degree flat countersunk head provides a flush surface finish after installation
• 8 mm hex socket drive for use with standard hex keys or socket drivers
• M12x1.75 metric thread, partially threaded shank for grip-length control
• 18-8 austenitic stainless steel, Grade A2, for corrosion resistance without plating
• Conforms to DIN 7991 dimensional standard
• 100 mm overall length suits medium-depth countersunk fastening applications

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 7991 metric flat socket cap screw for use in any application requiring an M12x1.75 countersunk hex socket fastener with a 100 mm overall length and Grade A2 stainless steel construction.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a countersunk hole sized to accept the 90-degree flat head profile; use the appropriate countersink bit for the mating material before driving the fastener. Torque to the fastener specification appropriate for Grade A2 stainless steel at M12 diameter as referenced in the applicable engineering standard or assembly drawing. Avoid mixing stainless steel fasteners with dissimilar metals in corrosive environments to prevent galvanic reaction. Use calibrated torque tooling to prevent galling, which is common with stainless steel threads.
