S-97133A250 M5 x 12 mm Sanitary Stainless Steel Truss Head Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 316L stainless steel construction, ideal for washdown and chemical exposure in food processing environments
• Enhanced structural integrity from 70,000 psi tensile strength and Rockwell B96 hardness, preventing fastener failure under load
• Optimized installation efficiency with 8mm wrench flats providing secure tool engagement and reduced slipping during tightening
• Reliable thread performance through Class 6g tolerance coarse threading (0.8mm pitch), ensuring consistent engagement and vibration resistance
• Hygienic surface compliance with 32 Ra exterior smoothness, minimizing bacterial entrapment and simplifying cleaning protocols
• Broad application versatility from the rounded truss head design, distributing clamping force while maintaining low-profile clearance
• Regulatory confidence with full RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) compliance for restricted substance management

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

Engineered for sanitary food industry applications, these M5 metric screws address critical hygiene and durability challenges. The 316L stainless steel composition delivers exceptional pitting resistance against acidic foods and sterilizing agents, while the fully threaded coarse pitch design maintains grip strength in vibration-prone equipment. The rounded truss head profile combines wide bearing surface with smooth contours to prevent product trapping and facilitate cleaning. With 32 Ra exterior smoothness, these fasteners meet strict sanitary standards where microbial growth control is paramount. The wrench flats drive style ensures reliable installation in confined spaces common to food processing machinery maintenance.
