Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This 450 stainless steel 12-point screw delivers exceptional engineering value in industrial settings where high-torque applications demand reliable fastening solutions. The external 12-point drive system provides superior torque transmission compared to standard hex drives, reducing tool slippage and damage in confined spaces. The UNC coarse threading with Class 3A precision ensures consistent engagement in materials where vibration resistance is critical. The integrated flange design distributes clamping force over a wider surface area (5/8" diameter), preventing surface damage while eliminating the need for additional components. With partial threading and 2 3/4" length, this fastener offers precise control in assembly operations where specific unthreaded sections are required for proper alignment and load bearing.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This 12-point screw features precision 3/8"-16 UNC coarse threading with Class 3A thread fit for superior dimensional accuracy. Manufacturing complies with applicable ASME standards for thread forms and dimensional requirements. The 450 stainless steel composition provides excellent corrosion resistance while meeting industry standards for mechanical fasteners. The product maintains compliance with RoHS and REACH environmental directives, ensuring suitability for various industrial applications without hazardous material concerns.
