Value Collection LHS4X06030-050BX Low Head Socket Cap Screw M6

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION LHS4X06030-050BX is a metric low head socket cap screw designed for applications where standard cap head height creates clearance problems. The screw is M6 x 1 thread with a 30 mm length under head and a reduced 4 mm head height, making it suited for tight assemblies and close-tolerance installations. Drive is hex socket using a 5 mm hex key. Material is 18-8 austenitic stainless steel, grade A2, with a bright uncoated finish. Threading is partial, with an 18 mm thread length and a 6G thread fit class. This fastener conforms to DIN 6912 standards and is sold in a minimum order quantity of 50 pieces.

This screw is used in mechanical assemblies, equipment fabrication, and structural fixturing where a low-profile head is required to avoid interference with adjacent components or mating surfaces. The stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for corrosive environments including food processing, marine, and outdoor equipment applications. Typical installers include millwrights, mechanical contractors, equipment assemblers, and maintenance technicians working on metric-dimensioned machinery and hardware.

Key Features

• Low 4 mm head height reduces clearance requirements versus standard socket cap heads
• M6 x 1 coarse metric thread with 6G fit class for consistent engagement
• 18-8 austenitic stainless steel, grade A2, resists corrosion and oxidation
• Partial threading with 18 mm thread length for controlled engagement depth
• Hex socket drive, 5 mm hex key, for positive torque application in confined spaces
• Conforms to DIN 6912 fastener standard

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit metric fastener for assemblies calling out DIN 6912 low head socket cap screws in M6 x 1 with 30 mm length under head.

Installation Notes

Install and remove using a calibrated 5 mm hex key or hex bit driver to avoid rounding the drive socket. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before installation. Do not exceed the torque rating specified by the assembly engineer for A2 stainless fasteners, as galling can occur if threads are driven dry at high speed. Apply a compatible anti-seize compound when stainless fasteners are threaded into stainless or aluminum components to prevent galling and seizure.
