Common Applications for M16 Hex Socket Cone Point Set Screw — GB/T 77 / ISO 4026 (Series 022)
M16 Hex Socket Cone Point Set Screw — GB/T 77 / ISO 4026 (Series 022) are commonly specified for heavier machine assembly and equipment mounting.
Installation Tips for M16 Hex Socket Cone Point Set Screw — GB/T 77 / ISO 4026 (Series 022)
- Use a quality Allen key fully seated in the socket — partial engagement is the most common cause of stripped sockets at this size.
- For countersunk and button-head variants, chamfer the through-hole to seat the head flush without preloading the head/shank fillet.
Mating Parts for M16
For M16, pair with a M16 hex nut (ISO 4032 / DIN 934) and, where used, a M16 flat washer (ISO 7089 / DIN 125A) under the head and under the nut.
