Value Collection FHS1X1670 Flat Socket Cap Screw M16x2

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION FHS1X1670 is an M16x2 flat socket cap screw designed for applications requiring a flush or countersunk fastener profile. Featuring a 90-degree flat head driven by a 10 mm hex socket, this screw sits flush with or below the mating surface when properly installed. Constructed from 18-8 austenitic stainless steel to Grade A2 per DIN 7991, it offers reliable corrosion resistance in general-purpose and mildly corrosive environments. The partial threading allows for precise clamping force across a range of joint thicknesses. With an overall length of 70 mm and a standard M16x2 thread pitch, this fastener suits structural and mechanical assemblies where a low-profile head is required.

This flat socket cap screw is suited for use in industrial, mechanical, and trade applications where a countersunk fastener is needed and material aesthetics or clearance constraints prevent a protruding head. Typical installation scenarios include machine frames, brackets, enclosures, and equipment panels across HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general manufacturing environments. The metric thread standard and DIN 7991 compliance make it compatible with internationally dimensioned assemblies. Installers in any trade working with metric hardware will find this fastener appropriate for flush-mount bolted connections in both light and moderate structural applications.

Key Features

• 90-degree flat head provides a flush or countersunk profile to eliminate protrusion
• 10 mm hex socket drive for use with standard Allen or hex key tooling
• M16x2 metric thread size with partial threading for controlled clamping engagement
• 18-8 austenitic stainless steel at Grade A2 for corrosion resistance in general-purpose service
• Conforms to DIN 7991 fastener standard for metric dimensional accuracy
• Overall length of 70 mm suits a range of panel and structural joint thicknesses

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style or MRO replacement flat socket cap screw for metric M16x2 threaded applications conforming to DIN 7991 dimensional standards.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic or tradesperson using a properly sized 10 mm hex key or Allen driver. Always ensure the mating countersunk hole is machined to the correct 90-degree angle and diameter to achieve full head seating. De-energize, depressurize, or shut down any system before fastener replacement or removal. Do not exceed the torque capacity of the stainless steel fastener, as Grade A2 material has lower yield strength than alloy steel equivalents and is susceptible to galling if installed without appropriate lubrication.
