A2 refers to the grade of stainless steel (304), and 70 refers to the minimum tensile strength of 700 MPa.
A2-70 stainless steel is generally considered non-magnetic, though very slight magnetism can occasionally occur due to the cold-working process during manufacturing.
Typically, an M6 DIN 912 socket head cap screw requires a 5mm hex key.
Yes, they are suitable for most outdoor applications due to their corrosion-resistant properties, though they should be avoided in harsh saltwater environments.
The thread length can vary by batch; typically, socket head cap screws have a defined thread length that may not cover the entire shank on longer sizes, but the M6 x 25mm is usually partially threaded.
Ensure the hex key is fully seated in the socket and is not worn out. Use the correct metric size key.
Back out the screw, check for debris in the threads, and verify that the hole is tapped to the correct M6 x 1.0 specification.
To install these screws, align your component and use a standard Allen (hex) key that matches the socket size. Avoid using power tools at high speed, as this can generate heat and potentially gall the stainless steel threads. To maintain the life of the screws, ensure the mating surface is clean and free of debris before insertion. For applications involving high vibration, consider using a thread-locking compound to prevent the screws from loosening over time. While A2-70 stainless is rust-resistant, avoid using them in high-salinity environments, as this may eventually lead to surface staining.
