Detailed Engineering Specifications

Built to exacting engineering tolerances, this M17x123mm hex head cap screw is manufactured from Titanium Grade 5 (Ti-6Al-4V), renowned for its high tensile strength (up to 950 MPa) and excellent fatigue resistance. The material's inherent biocompatibility and resistance to saltwater corrosion make it ideal for critical applications. The 20mm hex head width ensures secure engagement with standard tooling for precise torque application. Its lightweight nature, approximately 40% lighter than steel fasteners of equivalent strength, significantly reduces overall assembly weight without compromising structural integrity.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-torquing the titanium screw, potentially leading to thread stripping or fastener fatigue.Always adhere to the manufacturer's or engineering specifications for torque values. Use a calibrated torque wrench.
Using incompatible tooling that can damage the hex head, hindering proper torque application.Utilize high-quality, correctly sized hex sockets or wrenches designed for metric fasteners.

Common Applications

  • Aerospace structural components
  • Marine and offshore equipment
  • Medical implants and surgical instruments

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Titanium Grade 5 can gall if not properly lubricated or if threads are damaged during installation. Use anti-seize compound when appropriate.
  • Ensure compatibility with mating materials to prevent galvanic corrosion in specific environments.
