Value Collection MKFC03C012MBPKG M3x0.5 Flat Socket Cap Screw 50pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MKFC03C012MBPKG is a metric flat socket cap screw designed for applications requiring a low-profile, flush or countersunk fastening solution. Manufactured from grade 10.9 alloy steel, this screw delivers high tensile strength suitable for demanding mechanical assemblies. The zinc-blue trivalent chromate finish provides corrosion resistance and meets RoHS and REACH compliance standards. Sized at M3x0.5 with a 12.00 mm overall length, it is fully threaded and driven with a 2.00 mm hex socket key. This package contains 50 pieces, making it practical for production runs, maintenance kits, or field service inventory. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and assembly professionals are the primary installers of this fastener type.

This flat socket cap screw is suited for metric machine assemblies where a recessed, flush-mount fastener is required. The flat (countersunk) head profile allows the screw to sit at or below the surface of the mating material, making it appropriate for panel assemblies, fixture mounting, and equipment enclosures. The fully threaded M3x0.5 shank engages through thin materials or into tapped holes. The right-hand thread direction conforms to standard metric practice. Conformance to DIN 912 and ISO 4762 ensures dimensional interchangeability with other hardware to those standards in metric mechanical systems.

Key Features

• Grade 10.9 alloy steel construction for high tensile and proof load capacity
• Zinc-blue trivalent chromate finish provides corrosion resistance without hexavalent chromium
• RoHS and REACH compliant finish for use in regulated assemblies and export hardware
• Fully threaded M3x0.5 shank engages complete thread depth even in thin material
• 2.00 mm hex socket drive for precise torque application with standard metric hex keys or bits
• Conforms to DIN 912 and ISO 4762 for dimensional interchangeability
• Sold in a 50-piece package to support batch production or service stocking

Compatibility

Designed as a standard metric replacement or stock fastener compatible with any M3x0.5 tapped hole or through-hole application conforming to DIN 912 or ISO 4762 dimensional standards.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists, assemblers, or maintenance technicians using a 2.00 mm hex key or socket bit. Ensure the receiving hole is clean, properly tapped to M3x0.5, and free of debris before driving the screw. Apply appropriate thread-locking compound or torque specifications per the equipment manufacturer's assembly documentation, as this prompt does not supply product-specific torque values. Do not exceed the rated tensile strength of the screw by overtorquing, which can cause fastener failure in grade 10.9 hardware.
