Value Collection SCX216045-010BX M16 X 2.00 Socket Cap Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SCX216045-010BX is a metric hex socket cap screw engineered for demanding fastening applications. Manufactured from 18-8 austenitic stainless steel (Material Grade A2) with a bright, uncoated finish, it delivers corrosion resistance suitable for both indoor and outdoor service environments. The screw features an M16 x 2.00 thread size with a 45 mm length under head and is partially threaded, conforming to DIN 912 dimensional standards. A licensed mechanic, millwright, pipefitter, or maintenance technician typically installs this fastener using a standard hex key or Allen driver. It is sold individually.

This screw is suited for structural, mechanical, and industrial assembly work where a recessed drive profile and corrosion-resistant material are required. Partial threading allows for precise clamping force when fastening through clearance holes into tapped bores. It is commonly used in HVAC equipment frames, pump housings, bracket assemblies, pipe supports, and general machinery where metric fasteners per DIN 912 are specified.

Key Features

• M16 x 2.00 thread size - standard metric coarse pitch
• 45 mm length under head, partially threaded for controlled clamping
• 18-8 austenitic stainless steel, Material Grade A2 - resists corrosion and oxidation
• Bright, uncoated finish - no surface treatment to interfere with torque-tension relationships
• Hex socket (Allen) drive - compatible with standard hex keys and socket drive tooling
• Conforms to DIN 912 fastener standard

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 912 standard metric hex socket cap screw suitable for any application specifying an M16 x 2.00 partially threaded socket cap screw in 18-8 or A2 stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Install using an appropriately sized hex key or Allen socket driver; verify the drive tool seats fully before applying torque to avoid stripping the socket recess. Ensure the mating tapped hole is clean and free of debris before installation. When installing in stainless-to-stainless assemblies, apply an anti-seize compound to prevent galling. Always follow applicable equipment manufacturer specifications and relevant mechanical codes for fastener torque requirements.
