Value Collection MKFC05C012MBPKG M5x0.8 Flat Socket Cap Screw 50pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MKFC05C012MBPKG is a metric flat socket cap screw designed for flush or countersunk fastening applications where a low-profile head is required. Manufactured from grade 10.9 alloy steel with a zinc-blue trivalent chromate finish, this screw delivers high tensile strength with corrosion resistance suitable for general mechanical assemblies. The M5x0.8 thread pitch and 12mm overall length make it a common choice in precision equipment, machinery guards, and fabricated assemblies. Each package contains 50 pieces. This fastener is driven with a 3.00 mm hex socket tool and is fully threaded along its length.

This flat socket cap screw is used in applications requiring a countersunk seating surface, keeping the fastener head flush or below the mating part surface. Typical installations include machine tool components, jig and fixture assemblies, sheet metal panels, and structural brackets where head clearance is limited. The trivalent chromate finish meets RoHS and REACH compliance requirements, making these screws suitable for use in environmentally regulated equipment and exported assemblies. Machinists, millwrights, and mechanical assembly technicians are the primary installers.

Key Features

• Grade 10.9 alloy steel construction for high tensile and proof load strength
• Zinc-blue trivalent chromate finish provides corrosion resistance and is RoHS and REACH compliant
• Fully threaded shank along the 12mm overall length for maximum thread engagement
• 3.00 mm hex socket drive for standard Allen key or hex bit installation
• Conforms to DIN 7991 and ISO 10642 fastener standards
• Packaged in a quantity of 50 pieces per pack

Compatibility

Designed as a standard metric flat socket cap screw per DIN 7991 and ISO 10642, compatible with any tapped M5x0.8 right-hand threaded hole requiring a countersunk 90-degree flat head seating.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists, millwrights, or mechanical assemblers using a 3.00 mm hex key or socket bit driver. Confirm the mating hole is tapped to M5x0.8 and countersunk to the correct angle before installing. Do not over-torque; consult a grade 10.9 fastener torque chart for the appropriate seating torque for M5 screws. Ensure the mating surface is clean and free of debris before driving the fastener flush.
