Value Collection R86996860 M6 Hex Cap Screw 316 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R86996860 is a metric hex head cap screw designed for general fastening applications requiring corrosion-resistant hardware. Manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish, it delivers strong resistance to rust, chemicals, and moisture exposure. The fastener measures M6 x 1.00 thread pitch with a 16 mm length under head and is fully threaded along its entire shank. The 10 mm hex drive accommodates standard metric hex tooling. Conforming to DIN 933, this screw meets established dimensional and mechanical standards for metric fasteners used across industrial, marine, and mechanical assembly applications.

This screw is suited for use in environments where stainless steel construction is required, including marine hardware, food processing equipment, chemical processing assemblies, and general mechanical fabrication. Its fully threaded design makes it effective for clamping thin materials or where full thread engagement over the entire shank length is needed. Installers working in corrosive or washdown environments commonly specify Grade 316 stainless hardware for its superior resistance to chloride-rich and acidic conditions compared to Grade 304.

Key Features

• Grade 316 stainless steel construction for enhanced corrosion resistance in harsh environments
• Fully threaded shank per DIN 933 standard for maximum thread engagement
• M6 x 1.00 mm thread pitch with 16 mm length under head
• 10 mm hex drive compatible with standard metric wrenches and sockets
• Bright, uncoated finish — no additional coating to interfere with dimensional tolerances

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 933-compliant metric hex head cap screw suitable for M6 x 1.00 threaded holes in metal, composite, and structural assemblies requiring Grade 316 stainless fasteners.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a standard 10 mm metric open-end, box, or socket wrench. Verify that the mating thread is M6 x 1.00 metric pitch before installation to avoid cross-threading. In stainless-to-stainless assemblies, apply an appropriate anti-seize compound to prevent galling during torquing. Follow applicable mechanical or structural codes for torque requirements specific to the application.
