Value Collection HC1X18120-010BX Hex Head Cap Screw M18

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION HC1X18120-010BX is a metric hex head cap screw designed for general-purpose fastening in mechanical, structural, and industrial applications. It is manufactured from 18-8 austenitic stainless steel, Grade A2, providing solid corrosion resistance in wet or chemically exposed environments. The fastener measures M18 x 2.50 thread pitch with a 120 mm length under head and is partially threaded per DIN 931, EN 24014, and ISO 4014 standards. The 27 mm hex drive allows installation with standard metric wrenches and sockets. Tradespeople and maintenance technicians working across HVAC, plumbing, pool equipment, and general mechanical assemblies will find this a reliable metric hardware option.

This screw is suited for residential and light commercial installations where corrosion resistance is a priority, such as outdoor equipment mounting, pump housings, pool mechanical enclosures, and pipe flange connections. The partial threading is typical for bolted joint assemblies where a shank grip is needed to maintain clamping force without thread contact through the full fastened stack. Sold individually, it is appropriate for repair, replacement, or low-quantity maintenance work.

Key Features

• M18 x 2.50 metric thread, partially threaded per DIN 931 and ISO 4014
• 120 mm length under head suits medium-depth bolted assemblies
• 27 mm hex drive compatible with standard metric wrenches and sockets
• Bright, uncoated finish — no plating that can chip, flake, or add dimensional variance
• Meets DIN 931, EN 24014, and ISO 4014 dimensional standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard metric hex head cap screw for general-purpose bolted assemblies requiring M18 x 2.50 thread and a partially threaded shank per DIN 931, EN 24014, and ISO 4014 specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a 27 mm metric wrench or socket driver; confirm the mating thread and clearance hole are properly sized for M18 x 2.50 before installation. Stainless steel fasteners are susceptible to galling — apply an appropriate anti-seize compound to the threads when torquing into stainless or aluminum tapped holes. Always follow the equipment manufacturer torque specifications for the joint being assembled. De-energize and depressurize any system before replacing fasteners on pressurized or live electrical enclosures.
