Value Collection SCXX212120-010BX Socket Cap Screw M12x1.75

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SCXX212120-010BX is a partially threaded socket cap screw designed for high-strength fastening applications where corrosion resistance is a primary requirement. Manufactured from 316 austenitic stainless steel to Material Grade A4, this fastener meets DIN 912 dimensional standards. The hex socket drive head accepts a standard hex key for installation and removal in confined spaces. With a nominal thread size of M12x1.75 and a 120 mm length under head, this screw is suited for heavy-duty mechanical assemblies, structural joints, and equipment fabrication across a range of industries. Installers in marine, chemical processing, and food service environments commonly specify A4-316 stainless fasteners where salt or chemical exposure would degrade lower-grade materials.

This socket cap screw is applicable in industrial machinery, structural steel assemblies, pump and valve installations, and any application requiring a clean cap-head profile with recessed drive access. The partially threaded shank provides a clamping zone above the threaded engagement, which helps resist shear loads in bolted joint applications. Licensed millwrights, maintenance technicians, and mechanical contractors install this type of fastener across both light commercial and heavy industrial settings.

Key Features

• M12x1.75 thread size with 120 mm length under head for deep-reach fastening
• Partially threaded shank for improved shear load resistance in clamped joints
• 316 austenitic stainless steel, Material Grade A4, for superior corrosion resistance
• Bright/uncoated finish maintains dimensional consistency and allows for inspection
• DIN 912 standard ensures dimensional interchangeability with DIN 912-compliant hardware
• Hex socket drive allows torquing in recessed or tight-clearance installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit fastener for applications requiring DIN 912 socket cap screws in M12x1.75 thread pitch with a 120 mm length under head.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified mechanic or millwright familiar with metric fastener standards. Ensure the receiving threaded hole is clean, properly sized to M12x1.75, and free of debris before driving the screw. Use a calibrated torque wrench with the correct hex key bit to achieve the specified clamp load for the joint material and grade. Do not use impact tools unless the joint design explicitly allows for it, as over-torquing stainless fasteners can cause galling.
