Value Collection HC1XX12075-010BX M12 Hex Cap Screw 316 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION HC1XX12075-010BX is a metric hex head cap screw designed for fastening applications that require corrosion resistance and reliable clamping force. It is manufactured from Grade 316 austenitic stainless steel, classified as ISO Metric Grade A4, which provides strong resistance to chlorides, acids, and marine environments. The fastener measures M12 x 1.75 thread pitch with a 75 mm length under head and is partially threaded per DIN 931, EN 24014, and ISO 4014 standards. A 19 mm hex drive size accommodates standard open-end, box, or socket wrenches. Licensed tradespeople and industrial maintenance technicians install these fasteners in structural, mechanical, and equipment assembly applications.

This screw is suited for use in wet, corrosive, or outdoor environments where carbon steel fasteners would be subject to rust or galvanic incompatibility. Typical installations include marine hardware, food processing equipment, chemical handling systems, HVAC equipment frames, pool and water treatment infrastructure, and plumbing fixture assemblies. The partial threading design allows the unthreaded shank to bear shear loads while the threaded end provides clamping engagement, making it appropriate for through-bolt and clearance-hole installations.

Key Features

• Grade 316 austenitic stainless steel construction offers resistance to chlorides, saltwater, and mild acids
• Partially threaded shank per DIN 931, EN 24014, and ISO 4014 standards
• M12 x 1.75 metric thread with 75 mm length under head
• 19 mm hex drive compatible with standard metric wrenches and sockets
• Bright uncoated finish maintains base material corrosion resistance without additional coating considerations
• ISO Metric Grade A4 classification confirms material traceability and mechanical property compliance

Compatibility

Designed as a standard metric hex head cap screw conforming to DIN 931, EN 24014, and ISO 4014, compatible with M12 x 1.75 metric threaded assemblies requiring Grade 316 stainless steel fasteners.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic, pipefitter, or maintenance technician familiar with metric fastener torque requirements for Grade A4 stainless steel. Always consult the equipment manufacturer torque specification table for M12 fasteners before final tightening, as stainless steel fasteners are susceptible to galling if driven too fast or without lubrication. Apply an anti-seize compound compatible with stainless steel where thread galling is a concern. Confirm mating thread condition and hole alignment before installation to avoid cross-threading.
