Value Collection HC1XX08160-001BX Hex Cap Screw M8

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION HC1XX08160-001BX is a metric hex head cap screw engineered for demanding fastening applications where corrosion resistance is critical. Built from Grade 316 Austenitic Grade A4 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish, this screw offers strong resistance to chlorides and harsh environments. It features an M8 x 1.25 thread profile with a 160 mm length under head and is partially threaded per DIN 931 specifications. The 13 mm hex drive accepts standard metric wrenches and sockets. Mechanical assemblers, maintenance technicians, and industrial tradespeople rely on this fastener where marine, chemical, or outdoor exposure would degrade carbon or standard stainless grades.

This cap screw is suited for use in structural assemblies, equipment mounting, and fixture installations where metric fastening and elevated corrosion resistance are required. The DIN 931 partial-thread configuration provides strong clamping force for through-bolt applications in steel, aluminum, and other structural substrates. It is commonly used in marine equipment, process piping support structures, pool and water treatment equipment, and food-service installations where Grade 316 material is specified.

Key Features

• Grade 316 Austenitic Grade A4 stainless steel for superior corrosion resistance in chloride and chemical environments
• M8 x 1.25 metric thread size per DIN 931 standard
• 160 mm length under head — partially threaded for strong through-bolt clamping
• 13 mm hex drive compatible with standard metric wrenches and sockets
• Bright, uncoated finish — no coating to crack, peel, or interfere with torque values
• DIN 931 compliant for consistent dimensional interchangeability

Compatibility

Designed as a standard DIN 931 metric hex head cap screw suitable for M8 x 1.25 threaded applications requiring Grade 316 stainless steel fasteners.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic or maintenance technician using a calibrated metric wrench or socket set. Always verify thread engagement depth and substrate material compatibility before installation. Do not mix stainless steel fasteners with dissimilar metals in wet environments without appropriate isolation to prevent galvanic corrosion. Follow applicable mechanical codes and equipment manufacturer torque guidelines for the specific assembly.
