Socket head cap screw DIN 912 / ISO 4762, hex socket AF 10, M 12x180, steel 10.9 plain (black)

This version in steel 10.9 plain (black) covers the M 12 thread at 180 mm length. The cylindrical head with 18.0 mm diameter and 12.0 mm height takes an AF 10 hex socket, so no wrench flats are needed on the head.

Benefits

• The AF 10 hex socket transmits the tightening torque without wrench flats on the head.
• Size M 12 transmits high clamping forces, and the AF 10 hex socket takes the required tightening torque.
• Head diameter 18.0 mm at 12.0 mm head height to DIN 912, matching a cylindrical counterbore.
• Property class 10.9 allows higher preload than 8.8 at the same size M 12.
• A thread length of at least 36 mm within 180 mm overall length leaves a plain shank section.

Applications

• Drive and gearbox engineering
• Clamping fixtures in tool making
• Hydraulic and pneumatic power units
• Highly loaded flange joints

Standards and conformity

Head, AF 10 hex socket and M 12 thread follow DIN 912 in conjunction with ISO 4762. The material is documented as steel 10.9 plain (black).
