Value Collection R52000726 Flat Socket Cap Screw M16x2

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R52000726 is a metric flat socket cap screw designed for flush or countersunk fastening applications in mechanical assemblies, equipment fabrication, and structural connections. It features a 90-degree flat head driven by a 10 mm hex socket, allowing the fastener to sit flush with or below the surface of the mating material. Manufactured from 18-8 austenitic stainless steel to Grade A2, it offers solid corrosion resistance in moderately harsh environments. The M16x2 thread is fully threaded along its 30 mm overall length, conforming to DIN 7991 standards.

This screw is suited for use in industrial, marine, food-service-adjacent, and general mechanical applications where a flush-mount fastener and stainless steel corrosion resistance are required. The metric M16x2 thread pitch and DIN 7991 standard make it a direct fit for metric-spec machinery, enclosures, brackets, and structural components requiring a countersunk socket drive fastener. It is typically installed by machinists, millwrights, maintenance technicians, and trade professionals working on metric-dimensioned equipment.

Key Features

• 90-degree flat head seats flush in countersunk holes, eliminating protrusion above the mating surface
• 10 mm hex socket drive for secure torque application with standard Allen keys or hex bit drivers
• M16x2 thread size with full threading along the entire 30 mm length for maximum thread engagement
• 18-8 austenitic stainless steel at Grade A2 provides corrosion resistance in wet and mildly corrosive environments
• Conforms to DIN 7991 fastener standard for reliable metric compatibility

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 7991-compliant metric flat socket cap screw for use in any application requiring an M16x2 countersunk hex socket fastener in 18-8 Grade A2 stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Install using a calibrated 10 mm hex key or hex bit driver sized to the socket. Ensure the receiving hole is countersunk to 90 degrees to match the flat head geometry before installation. Always clean threads and inspect the mating bore for damage prior to fastening. De-energize and lock out any equipment before performing fastener installation or replacement on live machinery.
