Value Collection MASC0050014CP M5 X 0.8 Socket Cap Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MASC0050014CP is a fully threaded socket cap screw designed for applications requiring a strong, corrosion-resistant fastener with a low-profile head. Built to DIN 912 standards, this M5 x 0.8 screw features a hex socket drive and a 14 mm length under head. The 18-8 stainless steel construction, classified as Austenitic Grade A2, provides solid resistance to rust and chemical exposure. This fastener is installed using a hex key or Allen driver and is suited for mechanical assemblies, equipment fabrication, and maintenance work across industrial and commercial settings.

This socket cap screw is commonly used in machinery assembly, panel mounting, brackets, and general mechanical fabrication where a recessed hex drive is preferred over an external fastener head. The M5 x 0.8 thread pitch and 14 mm length make it a practical choice for medium-duty fastening in tight clearance situations. Machinists, millwrights, maintenance technicians, and fabricators regularly specify this style of fastener when working with metal-to-metal assemblies or threaded inserts.

Key Features

• M5 x 0.8 thread size with full threading along the 14 mm shank length under head
• DIN 912 fastener standard ensures dimensional consistency and interchangeability
• 18-8 stainless steel, Austenitic Grade A2, for corrosion resistance in demanding environments
• Hex socket drive allows torque application in confined spaces using a standard Allen key
• Socket cap head profile keeps the fastener low-profile when seated

Compatibility

Designed as a standard DIN 912 M5 x 0.8 socket cap screw, compatible with any threaded hole or insert meeting M5 x 0.8 thread specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a correctly sized hex key or Allen driver matching the socket cap drive. Ensure the mating thread is clean and free of debris before driving the fastener to avoid cross-threading. Stainless steel fasteners can be prone to galling during installation; applying an appropriate anti-seize compound is a common preventive measure. Power down or de-energize any equipment before performing fastener work on live assemblies.
