Socket head cap screw DIN 912 / ISO 4762, hex socket AF 6, M 8x55, steel 12.9 plain (black)

This version in steel 12.9 plain (black) covers the M 8 thread at 55 mm length. The cylindrical head with 13.0 mm diameter and 8.0 mm height takes an AF 6 hex socket, so no wrench flats are needed on the head.

Benefits

• Size M 8 covers the most common range in fixture building, and the AF 6 hex socket is a standard tool size.
• Property class 12.9 offers the highest strength in this range at the same size M 8.
• The AF 6 hex socket transmits the tightening torque without wrench flats on the head.
• A thread length of at least 28 mm within 55 mm overall length leaves a plain shank section.
• Dimensions to DIN 912 and ISO 4762, therefore interchangeable with existing M 8 joints.

Applications

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

Standards and conformity

Head, AF 6 hex socket and M 8 thread follow DIN 912 in conjunction with ISO 4762. The material is documented as steel 12.9 plain (black).
