S-90696A116 M18 x 40 mm DIN 912 18-8 Stainless Steel Socket Head Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Exceptional corrosion resistance from 18-8 stainless steel construction, ideal for harsh environments and preventing premature failure.
• High tensile strength of 70,000 psi ensures reliable performance under heavy loads and vibration, reducing the risk of shear.
• Precise Class 6g thread fit guarantees smooth assembly and a secure, consistent clamp load in your machined components.
• Robust Rockwell B70 hardness provides excellent wear resistance, maintaining thread integrity through repeated installation and removal.
• Standard hex socket drive (14mm) allows for high-torque installation with common tools, facilitating efficient assembly and maintenance.
• Full compliance with DIN 912, RoHS 3, and REACH ensures material quality, safety, and environmental responsibility for global projects.
• Coarse M18x2.5mm thread enables faster installation and is less prone to clogging with debris compared to fine-pitch alternatives.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This M18 socket head cap screw is engineered to solve critical fastening challenges in demanding industrial settings. Manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel, it offers superior resistance to rust and corrosion, making it an ideal choice for machinery, automotive assemblies, and outdoor equipment exposed to moisture or chemicals. The coarse thread design and Class 6g thread fit ensure rapid, reliable engagement in both tapped holes and nuts, reducing assembly time and preventing cross-threading. The hex socket drive provides a flush profile for space-constrained applications while allowing for the high torque necessary to achieve a secure, vibration-resistant joint. Its fully threaded body offers consistent holding power along its entire 40mm length, providing versatile clamping in a wide range of material thicknesses.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This screw conforms to the dimensional and mechanical specifications of the DIN 912 standard. The metric thread features a Class 6g tolerance for precision fit. It is fully RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) Compliant and REACH (EC 1907/2006) Compliant, ensuring it is free from hazardous substances and meets stringent environmental and safety regulations for industrial use.
