M12 x 120 Alloy Steel Metric Socket Head Shoulder Screw (Stripper Bolt) is named by its 12 mm shoulder, not by its M10-1.5 threaded end. The shoulder rides in the assembly while the threaded end anchors below it, so both diameters must match the print.
Stamping die sets and stripper plates use these metric stripper bolts as guided travel posts against springs. Check shoulder diameter, shoulder length, thread size, thread length, socket size, and head dimensions before substitution.
Cold Headers has supplied specialty socket fasteners since 1962 and supports exact metric shoulder-screw identification. ISO 7379 catalog nominals often list 13 mm here; this hard-to-find 12 mm shoulder is a stocked variant used in North American metric tooling. Inch-series Alloy Steel Socket Head Stripper Bolts are the related family when the print is not metric.
