This M12 x 160mm part threaded hex bolt is manufactured to DIN 931 in A2 stainless steel (304 grade). DIN 931 specifies a hex head bolt with a plain shank beneath the head and thread over the lower portion only, making it suited to joints that carry shear across the joint line. Property class A2-70 indicates a minimum tensile strength of 700 MPa - stronger than standard A2-50 and suited to structural fixings where higher clamping force is needed. The unthreaded shank sits in the bearing hole rather than the thread, locating the joint accurately and presenting a solid cross-section to shear loads instead of the reduced root diameter of a thread.

Typical applications

  • Structural steel and heavy timber connections
  • Pivot points, brackets, and load-bearing joints
  • Machinery frames and equipment mounting
  • Applications where the joint carries shear rather than tension
