Product Information

Full details

The Unifix A2-70 Socket Button Head Screws (M6 x 40) are precision-engineered fasteners designed for professional engineers, furniture manufacturers, and DIY enthusiasts who require a reliable, corrosion-resistant solution for industrial and domestic assembly projects. Crafted from high-grade A2-70 stainless steel, these screws provide exceptional strength and a low-profile aesthetic finish; however, users should note that they are intended for standard assembly use and are not rated for critical structural load-bearing applications in high-tension environments.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these screws suitable for marine environments?

While A2-70 is corrosion-resistant, it is not marine-grade. For saltwater exposure, A4 (316) grade stainless steel is recommended.

What size hex key do I need?

Standard M6 socket button head screws typically require a 4mm hex (Allen) key.

Can these be used in structural steel framing?

No, these are intended for fastening components and are not load-rated for primary structural support.

Are nuts included in the box?

No, this product box contains 200 screws only.

What is the thread pitch for these M6 screws?

These follow the standard ISO coarse thread pitch of 1.0mm.

Troubleshooting

Screw head rounding out during installation

Ensure the hex key is fully inserted into the socket and matches the size; use a high-quality hardened steel bit.

Screw binds before reaching full depth

Check if the pilot hole is deep enough; apply a small amount of lubricant to the threads if driving into dense material.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent resistance to corrosion in damp environments
  • Low-profile head minimizes snagging hazards
  • High-grade stainless steel ensures long-term durability
  • Standardized M6 threading works with common hardware inserts
  • Cost-effective bulk quantity of 200 units

Cons

  • Not suitable for high-stress structural applications
  • Socket head requires an Allen key rather than a standard screwdriver
  • Silver finish may not match all decorative hardware themes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install these screws, ensure you are using a high-quality M4 hex (Allen) key that matches the socket drive precisely to prevent rounding out the head. If driving into hardwood, it is recommended to drill a pilot hole first to prevent the fastener from binding or splitting the material. While the A2-70 material is corrosion-resistant, it can still surface-oxidize if exposed to harsh chemicals or extreme saline environments; wipe down with a dry cloth periodically to maintain the silver finish. These screws are compatible with standard M6 nuts, washers, and threaded inserts.
