M8 x 18mm Captive Socket Cap Head Screw | Similar to DIN 912 | A2 Stainless Steel
This M8 x 18mm socket head captive screw is suited to control cabinets, electrical enclosures and access plates where removable panels must be opened without completely separating the fastening hardware. The 1.25mm pitch, H6 drive and 8.0mm threaded length provide the main installation details for the screw. A2 Stainless Steel provides good corrosion resistance for general engineering, machinery, equipment and indoor or suitably protected external applications.
What Are Captive Socket Cap Head Screws?
Captive Cap Screws are used where a conventional fully removable screw could create a loose-part risk during maintenance. Their reduced captive diameter allows a suitable retention feature to hold the screw to the panel while the threaded end engages and disengages from the mating component.
Common Applications
- Jigs and Fixtures: Keeps adjustment or access fasteners associated with suitable workshop fixtures and production tooling.
- Laboratory Equipment: Supports retained panel fixing on instruments and serviceable technical equipment.
- Fabricated Housings: Provides a captive fastening format for custom covers, guards and equipment enclosures.
- General Engineering: Useful where a screw needs to remain attached to the assembly after disengaging from its mating thread.
