Value Collection SCX208150-005BX M8x1.25 Socket Cap Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SCX208150-005BX is a partially threaded hex socket cap screw in M8 x 1.25 metric thread with a 150 mm length under head. Manufactured from 18-8 austenitic stainless steel (Material Grade A2) with a bright, uncoated finish, this fastener meets DIN 912 standards. It is driven with a hex (Allen) key and is suited for precision assemblies where corrosion resistance and dimensional consistency are required. Licensed tradespeople and industrial maintenance technicians working with metric fastener systems will find this screw a reliable, specification-grade component.

This fastener is appropriate for use in light industrial, commercial, and mechanical applications where M8 metric threading is specified. The A2 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in moist or mildly chemical environments, making it a common choice in HVAC equipment frames, plumbing fixture brackets, pump assemblies, and general mechanical enclosures. It ships in a minimum order quantity of 5 pieces per package, making it suitable for both single-repair use and small-batch maintenance work.

Key Features

• M8 x 1.25 metric thread — standard coarse pitch for broad tool and hardware compatibility
• 150 mm length under head — suitable for longer grip applications and through-bolting scenarios
• Partially threaded shank — provides a smooth bearing surface for shear-loaded joints
• 18-8 austenitic stainless steel, Grade A2 — corrosion-resistant without additional coating
• Bright/uncoated finish — maintains precise dimensional tolerances per DIN 912
• Hex socket drive — installs with a standard hex key or Allen bit in confined spaces

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 912-compliant M8 x 1.25 metric hex socket cap screw, compatible with any application or assembly specifying that thread size, pitch, and drive type in stainless steel construction.

Installation Notes

Install using a properly sized metric hex key or Allen-drive bit to avoid rounding the socket. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before installation. Stainless steel fasteners are susceptible to galling — apply an appropriate anti-seize compound when torquing into stainless or aluminum threads. Always de-energize or depressurize equipment before replacing structural fasteners on active systems.
