Value Collection LHS4X08030-050BX M8x1.25 Low Cap Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION LHS4X08030-050BX is a low socket cap screw designed for applications where a standard-height cap head would interfere with mating components or clearance envelopes. Built to DIN 6912, it features an M8x1.25 metric thread with a 30.00 mm length measured under the head, partial threading, and a 6.00 mm hex socket drive. Manufactured from 18-8 austenitic stainless steel (Grade A2), the fastener provides solid corrosion resistance in wet, chemical-adjacent, or outdoor service environments. The bright, uncoated finish is left as-milled with no secondary coating. Typical installers include pipefitters, HVAC technicians, and mechanical contractors working on equipment assemblies, panel mounts, and structural brackets.

This screw is suited for metric fastener applications in residential and light commercial mechanical systems, including equipment frames, enclosure panels, pipe supports, and precision assemblies where a reduced-profile head is required. The partial threading allows for clamping force across unthreaded shank sections, which is useful in applications requiring joint float or bolt alignment before full engagement. Low-profile head geometry keeps the fastener below the plane of adjacent surfaces in countersunk or recessed pocket designs.

Key Features

• DIN 6912 standard low socket cap head for reduced clearance installations
• M8x1.25 metric thread, 30.00 mm length under head
• Partially threaded shank for controlled clamping and alignment
• 18-8 austenitic stainless steel, Grade A2 for corrosion resistance
• 6.00 mm hex socket drive for standard Allen key or hex bit tools
• Bright, uncoated finish — no additional plating or surface treatment

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 6912 metric low socket cap screw for M8x1.25 threaded holes in metal fabrications, mechanical assemblies, and equipment frames requiring a reduced-height fastener head.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a 6.00 mm hex key or hex socket bit; ensure the driver is fully seated before applying torque to avoid rounding the socket. De-energize or isolate any equipment before accessing internal fastener locations. For stainless fasteners in stainless or aluminum tapped holes, apply an appropriate anti-seize compound to prevent galling during installation. Fastener torque values should be determined by the equipment manufacturer or a qualified engineer per applicable mechanical codes.
