Value Collection SCX205006-050BX M5 X 0.80 Hex Socket Cap Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SCX205006-050BX is a fully threaded hex socket cap screw in M5 x 0.80 metric thread with a 6 mm length under head. Manufactured from 18-8 austenitic stainless steel (Material Grade A2) with a bright, uncoated finish, this fastener meets DIN 912 dimensional standards. The internal hex drive accepts a standard hex key for installation in confined spaces where a wrench or external-drive tool cannot reach. Sold in a minimum order quantity of 50 pieces, this screw is suited for assemblies requiring corrosion-resistant fastening in light-duty mechanical, HVAC bracket, plumbing fixture, and electrical enclosure applications.

This fastener is appropriate for use in residential and light commercial trade applications where metric fasteners are specified. Common install scenarios include securing sheet metal components, control panels, pump housings, and equipment frames. The M5 thread size and short 6 mm under-head length make it a practical choice wherever compact, corrosion-resistant fastening is required in tight clearance conditions. Licensed trades including HVAC technicians, plumbers, and electricians commonly keep metric socket cap screws on hand for OEM-style equipment repairs and panel work.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style metric replacement fastener for light commercial and residential equipment requiring DIN 912 M5 x 0.80 hex socket cap screws in stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a metric hex key sized for an M5 socket cap screw. Verify thread engagement depth and confirm the mating material is compatible with stainless steel to avoid galvanic corrosion in mixed-metal assemblies. De-energize electrical equipment and isolate any pressurized systems before removing or replacing fasteners on live equipment. Hand-start the thread before applying torque to prevent cross-threading in aluminum or softer base materials.
