M8x40 Hex Head Bolts Metric Hexagon Bolts A2 Stainless Steel Cap Screws Suitable for Metal Construction Work, Automotive Machinery, DIY DIN933 8mm x 40mm (Pack of 10)

• HEX CAP SCREWS: Screws have a solid hexagonal head. Screws are designed for manufacturing and construction applications. Screws have six-sided head without a recess. The sides are spread evenly apart, resulting in a hexagonal shape.
• USABILITY: Hex Cap Bolts are used for applications requiring greater torque than that of traditional screws with a circular head - Less likely to strip. Socket wrench needed.
• HEX SCREWS SUITABLE FOR: Hexagon screws are widely used in all kinds of mechanical equipment, electronic products, communication equipment, furniture and equipment, construction and other production, installation and maintenance.
• A2 STAINLES STEEL: A2 is also known as AISI 304 Stainless steel-The most commonly used stainless steel. Grade A2 steels are the more commonly used stainless steels. They are used for kitchen equipment and for apparatus for the chemical industry. Steels of this grade are not suitable for use in non-oxidising acids and media containing chloride, e.g. in swimming pools and in sea water.
• DIMENSIONS: Diameter M8, Length 40, Head height 5,3, Wrench 13, Thread 1,25, Stainless Steel A2

Hex Cap Screws Benefits of Hex Cap Screws With their hexagonal shape, hex cap screws allow for greater torque than that of traditional screws with a circular head. You can’t install or remove them using a standard screwdriver bit like a flat head or Philip’s head. Rather, you’ll have to use a ratchet and socket combination. Also known simply as a socket wrench, it allows you to fit the socket bit over the head of the hex cap screw. Once positioned, you can turn the socket wrench to install or remove the hex cap screw. The socket wrench will grip all six sides of the head so that you create more torque. Hex cap screws are also less likely to strip than their traditional counterparts. The head of a traditional screw may strip when you install or remove it. When the bit is placed inside the head’s drive recess, it may damage the screw during installation or removal. Hex cap screws distribute this turning force across all six sides so that stripping is less likely to occur. Specifications: Head Type: Hexagonal Material: A2 Stainless Steel Size: M8x40
