M12 x 16 Alloy Steel Metric Socket Head Shoulder Screw (Stripper Bolt) is designed for assemblies where the shoulder must locate, guide, or support a moving component rather than simply clamp parts together. The Stripper Bolt design separates the locating or bearing function from the threaded retention point, which helps maintain alignment in moving assemblies. Common uses include production machinery, production fixtures, stop blocks, and pivoting machine elements; related sourcing may also include precision manufacturing systems. Industrial distributors may stock this style for customers sourcing Alloy Steel shoulder screws for tooling, fixtures, and automation support. The design is useful for sliding plates, rotating links, locating nests, and spacer positions where repeatable movement matters. It can also support guide mechanisms, fixture stops, and replacement maintenance where a consistent shoulder surface is part of the design.
