Value Collection HC3XX08010-050BX M8 Hex Cap Screw 316 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION HC3XX08010-050BX is a metric hex head cap screw designed for general fastening applications that demand corrosion resistance and dimensional consistency. This fully threaded fastener measures M8 x 1.25 with a 10 mm length under the head, conforming to DIN 933 standards. It is manufactured from Grade 316 austenitic stainless steel (Grade A4), which provides superior resistance to chlorides and oxidizing environments compared to Grade 304. The 13 mm hex drive makes it compatible with standard metric wrenches and sockets. Tradespeople and maintenance professionals working in marine, food-service, chemical, or outdoor environments specify this grade for its long-term performance in corrosive conditions.

This fastener is used in applications where standard carbon steel or Grade 304 stainless would be inadequate due to salt air, moisture, or chemical exposure. Typical install scenarios include marine hardware assemblies, HVAC equipment mounting in coastal installations, plumbing fixture anchoring, pool and spa equipment brackets, and electrical enclosure assembly. The M8 thread size and short 10 mm body length suit shallow-clearance mounting points and thin flange connections. Sold in a minimum order quantity of 50 pieces per box, this screw is suited for professional stocking or multi-unit service projects.

Key Features

• Grade 316 austenitic stainless steel (Grade A4) construction for excellent chloride and corrosion resistance
• Fully threaded body per DIN 933 standard for consistent thread engagement along the entire shank
• M8 x 1.25 metric thread size with 10 mm length under head for shallow-clearance applications
• 13 mm hex drive compatible with standard metric wrenches and power sockets
• Bright uncoated finish maintains dimensional tolerances and avoids coating delamination in wet environments
• Packaged in multiples of 50 for efficient stocking and project use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style and general-use replacement or supply fastener for any application requiring a fully threaded M8 x 1.25 hex head cap screw conforming to DIN 933.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified tradesperson using a calibrated metric wrench or socket driver sized to the 13 mm hex. Confirm mating threads are clean and free of debris before driving to avoid galling, which is a known risk with stainless steel fasteners. Apply an appropriate anti-seize compound when assembling stainless fasteners into stainless or aluminum tapped holes. Follow applicable mechanical and structural codes for the specific trade and jurisdiction.
