Product Summary

Longze High-Strength Socket Countersunk Screws (DIN 7991 / ISO 10642) are designed for applications where a flush, flat-finish surface is required without sacrificing

clamping force. Manufactured in Yongnian, China, our flat head socket bolts are forged from high-grade alloy steel and precision-heat-treated to achieve Class 10.9 and 12.9

mechanical properties. Whether for precision machine tools, aerospace components, or high-end furniture assembly, Longze countersunk screws provide the streamlined aesthetics

and structural reliability required for modern engineering.

• ✔ Precision 90° Countersink: Perfectly formed conical heads ensure a flush fit with the mating surface, eliminating protrusions and snagging hazards.

•  

• ✔ High-Torque Hex Socket: Deep-seated, standardized hex drives are cold-swaged for maximum tool engagement, preventing "cam-out" and socket stripping during high-torque tightening.

•  

• ✔ Fatigue-Resistant Forging: Our drop-forged head-to-shank transition is optimized to reduce stress concentration, a critical factor for countersunk bolts under cyclic loading.

• Standards: DIN 7991, ISO 10642, ASME B18.3.

•  

• Diameter Range: M3 to M24 | #4 to 1".

•  

• Length Range: 6mm to 150mm (Fully threaded or partial thread available).

•  

• Material Grade: Alloy Steel (Class 10.9, 12.9) | Stainless Steel 304 (A2) & 316 (A4).

•  

• Surface Finish: Black Oxide, Zinc Plated, Dacromet, Geomet, Oil Dipped.

Avoid Pitfalls:

• Socket Depth vs. Head Strength: A socket that is too deep weakens the head, while one that is too shallow causes stripping. Longze strictly adheres to DIN 7991 tolerances to find the "Sweet Spot" between driving torque and structural integrity.

•  

• Conical Angle Deviation: Standard countersinks are 90°. We utilize precision gauges to ensure the angle is consistent across every batch, preventing "gap-fit" issues where the bolt sits too high or too low in the hole.

•  

• Hydrogen Embrittlement (12.9 Grade): For high-tensile 12.9 screws that require electroplating, we implement an immediate 8-hour de-embrittlement bake to maintain the molecular stability of the alloy steel.

•  

Perfect Fit Assembly:

• Correct Bit Selection: Always use high-quality metric hex bits for DIN 7991 screws. Worn bits are the primary cause of hex socket failure.

•  

• Chamfered Holes: For a truly flush finish, ensure the hole in the base material is pre-chamfered to the correct 90° angle using a professional countersink bit.

•  

Quality Control & Logistics:

• ISO 9001 Certified: 5-step QC including computerized optical sorting for head diameter, socket depth verification, and tensile testing of heat-treated batches.

•  

• Sea-Worthy Packaging: Screws are packed in double-walled 25kg cartons, plastic-lined for moisture protection, and palletized on reinforced crates for export from our Yongnian facility.

• Q: Why is Class 12.9 often supplied in Black Oxide rather than Zinc? A: Class 12.9 is highly sensitive to hydrogen embrittlement during the pickling process of zinc plating. Black oxide or Dacromet is often safer and more functional for these ultra-high-strength fasteners.

• Q: Can you manufacture stainless steel DIN 7991 in A4-80 (High Strength)? A: Yes, while standard stainless is A2-70, we can cold-forge A4-80 (316 High Strength) for specialized marine applications requiring both corrosion resistance and 800MPa tensile strength.
