Value Collection LHSGX06025-050BX M6 X 1 Low Head Cap Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION LHSGX06025-050BX is a metric low head socket cap screw designed for fastening applications where standard cap head height creates clearance problems. The low-profile head measures 4 mm in height, making it well-suited for recessed or confined mounting surfaces. Driven by a 5 mm hex socket key, this screw carries an M6 x 1 thread with a 25 mm length under head and is partially threaded at 18 mm of thread engagement. Manufactured from 18-8 austenitic stainless steel (Grade A2), it delivers corrosion resistance in wet, outdoor, and mildly corrosive service environments. The bright, uncoated finish leaves the base material exposed with no added plating. Licensed trades and industrial maintenance technicians install this fastener across mechanical, structural, and equipment assembly applications.

This screw is appropriate for metric fastening applications in residential and commercial mechanical systems, equipment panels, brackets, and enclosures where low-profile head clearance is required. The coarse M6 x 1 thread pitch and 6G thread fit class make it compatible with standard M6 tapped holes per metric thread standards. It is commonly used where space above the fastener head is restricted and a standard-height socket cap screw would protrude unacceptably or interfere with adjacent components.

Key Features

• Low-profile 4 mm head height clears tight mating surfaces where standard cap screws cannot seat flush
• M6 x 1 coarse thread with 6G fit class for use in standard metric M6 tapped holes
• 18 mm partial thread length on a 25 mm under-head body for grip in thicker assemblies
• 5 mm hex socket drive for use with standard metric hex keys or socket drivers
• 18-8 austenitic stainless steel, Grade A2, for corrosion resistance in wet or mildly corrosive environments
• Meets DIN 6912 fastener standard for dimensional and performance consistency

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard metric fastener for any application requiring a DIN 6912 low head socket cap screw in M6 x 1 with a 25 mm under-head length.

Installation Notes

Install using a 5 mm hex key or socket driver; avoid rounding the drive recess by using a properly sized, fully seated tool. De-rate torque values when threading into softer base materials such as aluminum or plastic. Power down or de-energize any equipment before accessing fastener locations inside electrical enclosures or control panels. Inspect thread condition in the receiving hole before installation to ensure full engagement across the 18 mm thread length.
