Value Collection SCXX208140-005BX M8x1.25 Socket Cap Screw 5pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SCXX208140-005BX is a partially threaded hex socket cap screw manufactured to DIN 912 standards. It features an M8 x 1.25 thread profile and a 140 mm length under head. Constructed from Grade 316 austenitic stainless steel (Material Grade A4), this fastener delivers strong corrosion resistance in wet, chemical, and marine environments. The bright, uncoated finish maintains dimensional precision and is compatible with standard hex key drivers. This item is sold in a minimum order quantity of 5 pieces and is suited for mechanical assembly, structural fastening, and industrial maintenance applications.

This screw is appropriate for use in applications requiring corrosion-resistant fastening where standard carbon steel hardware would be inadequate. Grade 316 stainless steel performs well in coastal environments, food processing equipment, chemical handling systems, and outdoor structural assemblies. The M8 x 1.25 thread size and 140 mm under-head length suit medium-duty through-bolting and tapped-hole fastening in metal fabrication, equipment mounting, and machine assembly. Installation is performed by maintenance technicians, pipefitters, millwrights, or general mechanical contractors using standard metric hex key tooling.

Key Features

• DIN 912 standard construction ensures dimensional consistency and interchangeability with metric fastener specifications
• Grade 316 austenitic stainless steel (A4) provides superior resistance to chlorides, acids, and oxidizing environments
• Partially threaded shank provides shear strength and precise clamping in through-bolted assemblies
• Bright, uncoated finish maintains accurate thread tolerances without added coating thickness
• Hex socket drive accepts standard metric hex keys and Allen-head bits for controlled torque application
• Sold in packs of 5 to meet minimum order requirements for job-site and shop use

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 912 metric hex socket cap screw for use in any tapped M8 x 1.25 threaded hole or application requiring a partially threaded, Grade 316 stainless steel socket head fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed using a correctly sized metric hex key or socket bit to avoid rounding the drive recess. Ensure the receiving thread is clean, free of debris, and correctly tapped to M8 x 1.25 specification before driving the screw. Grade 316 stainless fasteners are susceptible to galling under excessive installation speed; apply an appropriate anti-seize compound when torquing into stainless or aluminum tapped holes. Always follow applicable mechanical and structural fastening codes for the relevant application.
