Value Collection MASC0060040CP M6 X 1 Socket Cap Screw 40mm

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MASC0060040CP is a partially threaded socket cap screw designed for precision fastening applications requiring a low-profile, high-strength connection. It carries an M6 x 1 thread size with a 40 mm length under head and is manufactured from 18-8 austenitic stainless steel (Material Grade A2), conforming to DIN 912 standards. The hex socket drive accepts a standard hex key for installation in confined spaces where a wrench cannot reach. This fastener is commonly installed by machinists, millwrights, maintenance technicians, and fabricators working on mechanical assemblies, equipment enclosures, and structural fixtures.

This screw is suited for use in general industrial, commercial, and light structural applications where corrosion resistance and dimensional accuracy are required. The 18-8 stainless steel construction provides reliable resistance to oxidation and mild chemical exposure, making it appropriate for both indoor and outdoor installations. The partial threading allows for a smooth shank section beneath the head, which can be useful in applications requiring a shoulder or clearance fit through the first material layer.

Key Features

• M6 x 1 thread pitch for standard metric fastening applications
• 40 mm length under head, partially threaded construction
• 18-8 austenitic stainless steel (Grade A2) for corrosion resistance
• Hex socket drive allows installation in tight or recessed spaces
• Conforms to DIN 912 fastener standard for dimensional consistency
• Socket cap head profile provides a clean, flush-compatible finish

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 912-compliant metric socket cap screw suitable for use in mechanical assemblies, equipment frames, and fixtures requiring an M6 x 1 threaded fastener with a 40 mm length under head.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a properly sized hex key or Allen driver; always verify the driver size matches the socket to avoid cam-out and head damage. Power down and de-energize any equipment before fastening into electrical enclosures or live machinery. Follow applicable torque guidelines from the assembly engineer or equipment manufacturer, as no torque specification was provided with this fastener. Inspect threads and mating tapped holes for debris or damage before installation to ensure full thread engagement.
