Detailed Engineering Specifications

Manufactured under strict quality controls, this M12 x 110mm hex head cap screw is forged from high-grade brass, a material renowned for its excellent corrosion resistance, particularly in marine and chemical applications. The metric M12 thread ensures compatibility with standard metric nuts and tapped holes. With a nominal length of 110mm and a substantial 23mm head width, it provides ample bearing surface for secure torque application and load distribution. Brass's inherent non-magnetic and non-sparking properties make it suitable for hazardous environments where ignition sources must be minimized.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening, leading to thread stripping or fastener deformation.Utilize a torque wrench and adhere to the specified torque values for the M12 thread size and material.
Using the wrong size wrench, potentially damaging the hex head or slipping.Employ a 23mm wrench, or the correct size for the hex head width, to ensure a secure grip and prevent damage.

Common Applications

  • Marine hardware and fittings
  • Chemical processing equipment
  • Electrical grounding applications
  • Food processing machinery

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Brass is a softer material than steel; avoid using excessive force during installation.
  • Brass may gall under extreme pressure or with certain mating materials; consider lubrication.
