Value Collection FHS1XX0312-050BX M3x0.5 Flat Socket Cap Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION FHS1XX0312-050BX is a metric flat socket cap screw designed for applications where a flush or countersunk fastener profile is required. The 90-degree flat head seats into a countersunk hole and is driven with a 2.00 mm hex socket key. Manufactured from 316 austenitic stainless steel to Grade A4, this fastener offers strong resistance to corrosion and oxidation, making it suitable for wet, marine, or chemically exposed environments. The M3x0.5 thread is fully threaded along the 12.00 mm overall length to DIN 7991 standard. Machinists, fabricators, maintenance technicians, and assembly professionals are the primary installers of this fastener.

This flat socket cap screw is suited to general-purpose metric fastening tasks where a low-profile head and corrosion-resistant material are needed. Typical applications include panel mounting, machinery assembly, enclosure fabrication, and marine hardware. The fully threaded shank allows engagement across the full length in through-hole or blind-hole configurations. Grade A4 stainless steel makes this screw appropriate for food service, marine, and outdoor industrial installations where 304 stainless may be insufficient. The minimum order quantity for this part is 50 pieces, and the package quantity is 1.

Key Features

• 90-degree flat head profile for flush or countersunk installations

• Minimum order quantity of 50 ensures adequate supply for production or service runs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style metric flat socket cap screw compatible with any M3x0.5 countersunk hex-socket application conforming to DIN 7991.

Installation Notes

Install using a 2.00 mm hex socket key or ball-end hex driver. Ensure the receiving hole is properly countersunk to 90 degrees to achieve full head seating and flush finish. Do not exceed the rated torque for M3 stainless steel fasteners, as over-torquing can gall or shear the threads. When installing in stainless-to-stainless applications, consider applying an anti-seize compound to prevent galling.
