DIN 6912 standardized hexagon flange face screws (Hexagon socket head cap screws with reduced loadability - Low head, with centre) are fasteners with hexagon socket drive grooves and a low height cylindrical head, typically used where a restricted head height is required. These screws feature a hexagonal head with a center pilot hole to provide improved alignment and drive performance.
Carbon Steel: Typically used for general applications.
Stainless Steel: For environments where corrosion resistance is required.
Alloy Steels: Used in applications requiring high strength or high temperature resistance.
Advantage:
Pilot hole design: The center pilot hole design of DIN 6912 screws allows for better alignment and guidance of the screw during tightening, improving installation accuracy. Low-height head: The low height of the cylindrical head design allows the screw to be used in applications where head space is limited, such as electronic equipment and precision machinery. High-strength materials: Usually made of high-strength steel, such as performance grade A2-70 or A4-70, with good mechanical properties and corrosion resistance.
Scope of Application
Electronic Devices: Used in the assembly of electronic devices where a flush mount is required for aesthetic or space-saving reasons.
Mechanical Equipment: Employed in machinery where a low-profile fastening solution is needed, such as in the construction of compact mechanisms or fixtures.
Automotive Industry: Can be used in automotive applications where space is at a premium and a flush finish is desired.
Aerospace and Medical Equipment: Utilized in industries where weight and space are critical, and a reliable connection is necessary.
