Value Collection SCX201604-050BX M1.6 Hex Socket Cap Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SCX201604-050BX is an M1.6 x 0.35 metric hex socket cap screw manufactured from 18-8 austenitic stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish. It measures 4 mm in length under the head and is fully threaded along its entire shank. Conforming to DIN 912, this fastener is designed for precision assemblies where a low-profile socket-drive cap screw is required. The stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance suitable for demanding environments. This screw is commonly installed by machinists, maintenance technicians, and assembly professionals working in industrial, electronic, or instrumentation applications.

This fastener is suited for use in tight-clearance assemblies where a hex key (Allen) drive is required and a standard hex head would not fit. The small M1.6 thread diameter makes it appropriate for miniature mechanical assemblies, instrument enclosures, electronic housings, and precision equipment. Fully threaded construction ensures maximum thread engagement across the full 4 mm length under the head, making it practical for thin material applications. This item is sold in a minimum order quantity of 50 pieces per package.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard DIN 912 hex socket cap screw suitable for M1.6 x 0.35 metric threaded holes in miniature mechanical assemblies, precision instruments, and electronic enclosures requiring a fully threaded stainless steel fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation requires an appropriately sized metric hex key or Allen driver to avoid rounding the socket. Ensure the receiving threaded hole is clean and correctly tapped to M1.6 x 0.35 before driving. Stainless steel fasteners can be prone to galling at high torque; apply an appropriate anti-seize compound when thread galling is a concern. Follow applicable mechanical assembly standards for torque and thread engagement requirements.
