Value Collection SCXX216080-010BX M16 Socket Cap Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SCXX216080-010BX is a metric hex socket cap screw designed for bolted assemblies that require a recessed Allen-key drive and a low-profile head. The screw is partially threaded with an M16 x 2.00 thread form and an 80 mm length under head, conforming to DIN 912. It is manufactured from 316 austenitic stainless steel (Material Grade A4), which provides strong resistance to corrosion and is well suited to wet, marine, chemical, and outdoor environments. Machinists, millwrights, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians install this fastener when a flush or countersunk socket drive is required in metal or structural applications.

This screw is used in general mechanical assembly, structural fabrication, equipment mounting, and piping support work where a corrosion-resistant metric fastener is needed. The M16 thread size is common in heavy-duty machine frames, pump flanges, and process equipment. The partial threading keeps the shank smooth for shear-load applications, and the bright uncoated finish preserves dimensional accuracy for close-tolerance fits.

Key Features

• M16 x 2.00 metric thread, partially threaded for combined shear and tensile load applications
• 80 mm length under head provides substantial grip length in thick flanges or structural members
• 316 austenitic stainless steel, Material Grade A4, for superior corrosion resistance in marine and chemical environments
• Hex socket (Allen key) drive for high torque input in confined spaces
• Bright uncoated finish maintains precise thread dimensions and allows post-installation coating if required
• Conforms to DIN 912 fastener standard for dimensional consistency and interchangeability

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 912-compliant M16 x 2.00 metric hex socket cap screw suitable for use wherever a Grade A4 stainless partially threaded socket cap screw of 80 mm length under head is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed using a properly sized hex key or Allen socket driver; always use the correct key size to avoid rounding the socket drive recess. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before installation. When installing stainless steel fasteners, apply an anti-galling lubricant to the threads to prevent seizing, which is a common issue with austenitic stainless grades. Verify torque requirements from the equipment or structural specification before final tightening.
