Description
The M6-1.0 Socket Head Cap Screw is a heavy-duty metric fastener designed for robust mechanical assemblies where strength, precision, and space-efficiency are critical. Its cylindrical head with internal hex drive allows for streamlined installation in counterbored holes, supporting secure, high-torque connections in compact or high-load environments such as machinery, equipment frames, and structural systems.
