Hexagon Socket Head Cap Screw M8x16 – ISO 4762
The M8x16 socket head cap screw according to ISO 4762 (equivalent to DIN 912, PN 82302, UNI 5931) is a dependable fastening solution for demanding technical and industrial applications. Made from high-strength carbon steel (grade 8.8) and zinc-plated for corrosion protection, it delivers excellent clamping force in a compact head design—ideal where space is limited and a clean, professional assembly is required.
Applications
- Assembly of machinery and equipment
- Industrial automation and robotics
- Aluminium constructions (e.g., T-slot profiles)
- Electronics and precision devices
Perfect wherever high strength, compact head geometry, and hex key operation are required.

Use with our aluminium T-slot profile connectors
This M8 socket head cap screw is a go-to choice for building rigid, vibration-resistant joints in aluminium profile systems. It pairs perfectly with many of the connectors and fastening solutions we supply for T-slot constructions, such as:
- Angle brackets / corner connectors for strong 90° joints
- Joining plates and flat connectors for profile-to-profile connections
- Internal connectors for clean, flush-looking assemblies
- T-nuts / hammer nuts / sliding nuts (depending on your slot system) for secure fastening inside the profile groove
Because the socket head design allows tightening with an Allen key even in tighter spaces, it’s especially practical for compact frames, machine guards, workstations, and automation structures.
