M16-2.0 x 80 18-8 Stainless Steel Metric Socket Head Cap Screw is used where metric socket screws need a corrosion-resistant stainless material in general service. ISO 4762 / DIN 912 geometry keeps the head diameter, head height, socket size, and key engagement tied to the metric diameter. The chromium-nickel stainless family resists rust and staining better than uncoated plain or alloy steel in many plant environments.
Common applications include food and beverage processing lines, guards, brackets, and washdown-adjacent machine panels. For stainless-on-stainless threads, moderate installation speed and a suitable lubricant or anti-seize help reduce galling risk.
Cold Headers focuses on specialty socket products for production, repair, replacement, and imported-equipment support. Review the metric thread, length, head diameter, head height, socket size, and key engagement before substituting another screw.
