M16-2.0 x 100 18-8 Stainless Steel Metric Socket Head Cap Screw is specified when the drawing calls for a metric socket head cap screw rather than an inch substitute. The verified head and socket dimensions help confirm counterbore fit before substituting another metric screw. 18-8 stainless steel is used for general corrosion resistance, clean appearance, and ordinary wet industrial service.
Metric control enclosures and instrument housings use socket head fasteners where internal hex access is preferred.
Since 1962, Cold Headers has helped industrial buyers sort socket fasteners by material, head style, and exact size. Review the metric thread, length, head diameter, head height, socket size, and key engagement before substituting another screw. Cold Headers can help confirm the exact metric length and stainless family when replacement records are incomplete.
