Value Collection LHS4X06016-050BX Low Head Socket Cap Screw M6x1

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION LHS4X06016-050BX is a low head socket cap screw engineered for applications where standard cap head height creates clearance problems. It features an M6 x 1 thread size with a 16 mm length under head and is fully threaded along its entire shank. The reduced-profile hex socket head accepts a 5 mm hex key, making it well suited for flush or near-flush installations in tight assemblies. Manufactured from 18-8 austenitic stainless steel to Grade A2, it provides reliable corrosion resistance in wet, chemical, or outdoor environments. Supplied in a bright, uncoated finish per DIN 6912.

This screw is used across a wide range of trade and light industrial applications including HVAC bracket assemblies, electrical enclosure hardware, plumbing fixture mounting, and pool equipment panels where low-profile fasteners are required. Its metric M6 x 1 thread and DIN 6912 standard make it a straightforward specification item for technicians working with metric hardware on residential and commercial equipment. Sold in minimum order quantities of 50 pieces per package quantity of 1.

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 6912 metric replacement or service fastener for any assembly requiring an M6 x 1 low head socket cap screw in stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a 5 mm hex key or hex socket driver. De-energize or shut down any equipment before accessing fastener locations on live electrical or mechanical assemblies. Avoid mixing stainless fasteners with dissimilar metals in high-galvanic-potential environments without appropriate isolation. Apply anti-seize compound if the mating material is also stainless steel to prevent galling during installation.
