Product
This set includes 200 pieces of DIN 916 stainless steel A2 hexagon socket set screws, M8 x 10 mm, headless design. Ideal for specialized mechanical assemblies requiring compact, corrosion-resistant fasteners for secure pressure-fit applications.
Specifications
- Manufactured from A2 stainless steel for enhanced corrosion resistance and durability
- DIN 916 standard: hex socket drive, fully threaded, cup point tip, and headless design
- Metric thread (M8), right-hand thread direction, 10 mm length, designed for pressure loads rather than tensile or shear forces
- Complies with international standards such as DIN 916, ISO 4029, and others for quality and interchangeability
- Cup point offers a firm grip on mating components, particularly effective on softer materials
Usage
These screws are intended to be inserted into pre-drilled, aligned holes and tightened with a hex driver, applying pressure with the cup point against a shaft or surface. Commonly used in machinery, electronics, and equipment assembly where a flush, headless fastening is required and where resistance to loosening from vibration is important.
FAQ
-
What is the main application of DIN 916 hex socket set screws?
These screws are used for securing components in machinery and assemblies, especially where a headless, compact fastener is required for pressure holding.
-
Can these screws be used outdoors or in corrosive environments?
Yes, the A2 stainless steel material provides excellent corrosion resistance, making them suitable for indoor and outdoor use.
-
Are these screws reusable after installation?
They can typically be removed and reused, provided the hex socket and threads are not damaged during initial installation.
-
What type of tool is needed for installation?
A standard hex key (Allen wrench) matching the socket size of the screw is required for both installation and removal.
-
Are these screws suitable for load-bearing joints?
No, DIN 916 set screws are designed for pressure loads and are not intended for tensile or shear-load applications.
