Hexagon Socket Head Cap Screw — Product Description
The hex socket head cap screw is a fastener with a cylindrical head featuring a hexagon socket recess. It is typically driven using an hex key (Allen wrench). The screw is threaded into pre-tapped holes or used with nuts to secure components together. This product conforms to GB/T 70.1 (equivalent to ISO 4762 and DIN 912), with thread sizes ranging from M1.6 to M64, and performance classes including 8.8, 10.9, 12.9 for carbon steel, as well as stainless steel grades A2-70 and A4-80. The high head strength allows the application of substantial tightening torque, making it widely used in mechanical equipment, automobiles, molds, electronics, hydraulic and pneumatic systems, and general industrial assembly.
1. Product Features
- Cylindrical head structure: The head is cylindrical with a hex socket recess on top. Head diameter and height follow standard series, allowing countersunk installation for a flush surface.
- Hex socket drive: Operated with an hex key, distributing force evenly and resisting cam-out, ideal for space-constrained applications or situations requiring high tightening torque.
- Complete specifications and grades: Thread sizes from M1.6 to M64, carbon steel performance classes 8.8, 10.9, 12.9, and stainless steel A2-70 and A4-80.
- Diverse materials and surface finishes: Available in carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel, brass, and more. Surface finishes include blackening, zinc plating, Dacromet, and Geomet.
- Optional thread forms: Full thread or partial thread available; partial thread offers superior shear resistance.
2. Product Advantages
- High preload capacity: The large contact area of the hex socket withstands high tightening torque, ideal for high-strength, high-reliability connections.
- Suitable for confined spaces: The hex key can be applied from above or the side, saving space compared to hex head bolts.
- High head strength: The large cylindrical head cross-section resists stripping or deformation, allowing repeated assembly and disassembly.
- Flush surface after installation: The head can be countersunk, reducing protrusion and improving appearance.
- Standardized interchangeability: Unified dimensions allow products from different suppliers to be interchangeable, simplifying procurement and maintenance.
- Reliable anti-loosening: Combined with thread lockers, self-locking nuts, or washers, it meets anti-loosening requirements in vibrating conditions.
3. Areas of Application
- Mechanical equipment: Fastening of machine tools, gearboxes, pumps, valves, automation equipment, compressors, and other components.
- Automobiles and motorcycles: Connections in engines, transmissions, chassis, body accessories, and interior components.
- Molds and tooling: High-strength, countersunk installations in mold plates, fixtures, and gauges.
- Electronics and appliances: Fastening of chassis, cabinets, small appliances, instrument enclosures, and internal components.
- Hydraulics and pneumatics: Compact connections in valve blocks, hydraulic cylinders, pneumatic cylinders, and pump stations.
- General industry and maintenance: Steel structures, shelving, pipe flanges, furniture hardware, and everyday repair assembly.
