Custom Metric Socket Cap Screws - M2-0.4M X 6MM Socket Head Cap Screws In DFARS Compliant 303 Stainless Steel

Custom Metric Socket Cap Screw - M2-0.4M X 6MM Socket Head Cap Screws In DFAR Compliant 303 Stainless Steel

These are M2 X 6MM DFARS compliant socket cap screws whose simplicity in look is misleading to say the least.  We were tasked to replicate our customers existing samples and the combination of the hex broach dimensions and depth together with the countersunk angle required a different approach than a standard flat socket head screw.  The part was initially made like a standard socket cap screw without the countersink, broached to required depth, and then machined down for the countersunk angle.  Finally the part was then threaded and passivated.
