Common Applications for M12 Slotted Long Dog Point Set Screw — GB/T 75 / ISO 7435 (Series 041)
M12 Slotted Long Dog Point Set Screw — GB/T 75 / ISO 7435 (Series 041) are commonly specified for heavier machine assembly and equipment mounting.
Mating Parts for M12
For M12, pair with a M12 hex nut (ISO 4032 / DIN 934) and, where used, a M12 flat washer (ISO 7089 / DIN 125A) under the head and under the nut.
When to Step Up or Down from M12
When the joint preload approaches the proof load of M12 class 8.8, step up to M16 class 8.8 (or move to M12 class 10.9). When the joint is over-specified, M10 often saves weight and cost without losing the safety margin.
