Phillips Countersunk Machine Screw manufactured in Grade 12.9 Steel (class 12.9) are dimensioned to GB/T 819.1 / ISO 7046. The sections below give the mechanical and physical properties of the grade, its behavior in corrosive and elevated-temperature service, and the full size table.
Why Choose Grade 12.9 Steel for Phillips Countersunk Machine Screw — GB/T 819.1 / ISO 7046 (Series 029)
The highest common strength class, for high-load machine assembly. For phillips countersunk machine screw — gb/t 819.1 / iso 7046 (series 029), this matters when requires plating or black-oxide protection is the primary requirement.
Mechanical & Physical Properties
| Grade designation | class 12.9 |
|---|---|
| Magnetic response | Magnetic |
| Service temperature | up to approx. +300 °C |
| Corrosion characteristic | Requires plating or black-oxide protection |
Corrosion Behavior in Service
Carbon and alloy steel phillips countersunk machine screw — gb/t 819.1 / iso 7046 (series 029) require a coating for corrosion protection. Zinc plating (with or without passivation) is the most common; hot-dip galvanizing is used for outdoor structural service; black-oxide is mainly a tarnish-prevention finish for tool-room use.
Comparable Grades
For Phillips Countersunk Machine Screw — GB/T 819.1 / ISO 7046 (Series 029), class 8.8 is the comparable strength step. Move up when the joint preload approaches the proof load of the current class; move down when the joint is over-specified. For corrosion-critical service, switch to stainless A2 or A4.
