Value Collection MASC0060018CP M6 Hex Socket Cap Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MASC0060018CP is a metric hex socket cap screw engineered for reliable fastening in mechanical, structural, and fabrication applications. It features an M6 x 1.00 thread profile with an 18 mm length under head and is fully threaded from tip to head. The fastener is manufactured from 18-8 austenitic stainless steel (Material Grade A2) and carries a bright, uncoated finish. The internal hex drive accepts a standard hex key or Allen wrench for installation in confined or torque-sensitive locations. Licensed trades, machinists, and maintenance technicians across industrial and commercial settings rely on this screw type for corrosion-resistant clamping force in moderate-temperature environments.

This screw is suited for use in stainless-compatible assemblies where corrosion resistance is required, including food-processing equipment, marine hardware, plumbing fixtures, HVAC panel mounting, and general mechanical assemblies. The fully threaded shank provides maximum thread engagement across the full 18 mm clamped length, making it appropriate for through-hole and threaded-insert applications. It conforms to DIN 912, the widely recognized international fastener standard for cylindrical head socket cap screws.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard DIN 912 metric hex socket cap screw for use in any application requiring an M6 x 1.00 thread pitch fastener with an 18 mm length under head.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a correctly sized metric hex key or hex bit driver. Always verify thread engagement depth and confirm the receiving material is compatible with stainless steel to avoid galling. De-energize or de-pressurize any system before replacing fasteners in live mechanical assemblies. Apply anti-seize compound when installing stainless fasteners into stainless threaded inserts to reduce the risk of galling during torque-down.
