Value Collection HC1X12160-001BX Hex Cap Screw M12

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION HC1X12160-001BX is a partially threaded hex head cap screw in the M12 x 1.75 thread size with a 160 mm length under head. Manufactured from 18-8 austenitic stainless steel to Grade A2 specification, this fastener delivers strong corrosion resistance across a wide range of industrial, mechanical, and trade applications. The bright, uncoated finish maintains full dimensional accuracy to DIN 931 standards. A 19 mm hex drive makes for straightforward installation with standard wrenching tools. This screw is appropriate for any application requiring a metric partially threaded hex cap fastener in a corrosion-resistant alloy.

This fastener suits residential, commercial, and industrial assembly work wherever metric hardware is specified. The M12 x 1.75 thread form and 160 mm shank length make it a common choice for structural bolting, equipment mounting, and mechanical assemblies requiring a full-clamp-length grip. The partial threading allows the unthreaded shank to serve as a bearing surface in clearance holes, which is a common requirement in fabrication and maintenance work across HVAC equipment frames, plumbing fixture supports, pool equipment enclosures, and general mechanical installations.

Key Features

• M12 x 1.75 metric thread form with 160 mm length under head
• Partially threaded shank per DIN 931 for use as a bearing surface in clearance holes
• 18-8 austenitic stainless steel, Grade A2, for corrosion resistance in wet and outdoor environments
• Bright, uncoated finish maintains precise dimensional tolerances
• 19 mm hex drive compatible with standard metric wrenches and sockets

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 931 metric hex head cap screw suitable for M12 x 1.75 threaded assemblies requiring a partially threaded, stainless steel fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic, fabricator, or trade professional familiar with metric fastener specifications. Verify thread engagement depth and mating thread material before installation to avoid galling, which can occur when stainless fasteners are installed without anti-seize compound. Use a calibrated torque wrench and follow the applicable torque specifications for Grade A2 M12 hardware as referenced in your project or equipment documentation. Always ensure the mating surface is clean and free of debris before assembly.
