Value Collection SCX214050-010BX M14x2 Socket Cap Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SCX214050-010BX is a metric hex socket cap screw designed for fastening applications that require corrosion-resistant hardware and a recessed Allen-drive head. The screw is manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel to austenitic Grade A2 standards, making it suitable for environments where mild corrosion resistance is required. It carries a bright, uncoated finish and conforms to DIN 912, a widely recognized standard for cylindrical-head socket screws. Partial threading along the shank allows for shoulder-style clamping force in bolted joints. The M14 x 2.00 thread designation indicates a 14 mm nominal diameter with a 2.00 mm pitch.

This screw is used across general mechanical assembly, structural fabrication, machine building, and maintenance repair operations where metric fasteners are specified. The DIN 912 profile is common in industrial equipment, hydraulic assemblies, and fabricated steel structures. Stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for light outdoor exposure, washdown environments, and applications where carbon steel fasteners would corrode prematurely. It is typically installed by machinists, millwrights, pipefitters, and general maintenance technicians.

Key Features

• M14 x 2.00 thread size with 50 mm length under head
• Partially threaded shank for clamping and shoulder-bolt applications
• 18-8 stainless steel, austenitic Grade A2 per DIN 912
• Bright uncoated finish — no plating to flake or delaminate under torque
• Hex socket (Allen) drive for high-torque installation in recessed or tight spaces
• UNSPSC Code 31161501 for procurement and catalog classification

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 912-compliant metric hex socket cap screw suitable for M14 x 2.00 threaded applications in standard metric assemblies, fixtures, and equipment.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a properly sized metric hex key or Allen socket driver sized for an M14 DIN 912 cap screw. Confirm thread engagement depth and verify that the mating threaded hole or nut meets the same metric pitch standard before driving. Stainless steel fasteners are susceptible to galling — apply an appropriate anti-seize compound to the threads when installing into stainless or aluminum tapped holes. Never use an impact driver without a torque-limiting socket to avoid thread damage or screw fracture.
