S-96970A161 M12 x 25 mm DIN 6912 18-8 Stainless Steel Low-Profile Socket Head Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 18-8 stainless steel construction, ensuring long-term reliability in harsh industrial environments
• Enhanced torque transmission and reduced cam-out thanks to the hex drive with pilot recess design for secure installation
• Space-saving low profile head (7.5mm height) ideal for applications with limited clearance without compromising strength
• High mechanical performance with 100,000 psi tensile strength and Rockwell B96 hardness for demanding applications
• Reliable thread engagement with Class 6g metric coarse thread (M12 x 1.75mm) ensuring consistent fastening in various materials
• Optimized partial threading (15.5mm min thread length) providing maximum unthreaded shank strength where needed
• Regulatory compliance assurance meeting DIN 6912 specifications and RoHS 3 standards for global industrial use

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This low profile socket head cap screw delivers exceptional engineering value in industrial applications where space constraints and corrosion resistance are critical. The 18-8 stainless steel construction provides excellent durability against moisture, chemicals, and temperature variations, while the hex drive with pilot recess ensures maximum torque transfer without stripping during high-stress assembly operations. The M12 metric coarse thread with Class 6g tolerance offers reliable performance in machinery, automotive components, and structural frameworks where vibration resistance and repeated disassembly are common requirements. The partially threaded design concentrates strength in the shank section, making it ideal for precision equipment where shear strength and alignment accuracy are paramount.

Specification Summary & Compliance

Manufactured to DIN 6912 standards with Class 6g thread fit precision, this fastener maintains dimensional accuracy across all critical parameters including 18mm head diameter and 25mm total length. The metric coarse thread (M12 x 1.75mm) follows international threading specifications, while the RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) compliance ensures environmental responsibility. Mechanical properties include Rockwell B96 hardness and 100,000 psi tensile strength, validated through rigorous quality control processes for consistent performance in professional applications.
