FULLERKREG DIN 7984 Grade 10.9 Black Low Head Socket Cap Screws
FULLERKREG DIN 7984 Grade 10.9 Black Low Head Socket Cap Screws are high-strength fasteners manufactured from 10B21 boron-alloyed steel with a black oxide surface treatment. Grade 10.9 delivers significantly higher tensile strength than Grade 8.8, making these screws suitable for demanding structural and mechanical applications where both high clamping force and a low-profile head are required. The black oxide finish provides a professional appearance and is free from hazardous substances, meeting RoHS environmental requirements.

Material — 10B21 Boron Steel Chemical Composition (%)
FULLERKREG DIN 7984 Grade 10.9 low head cap screws are manufactured exclusively from 10B21 boron-alloyed steel. The addition of boron (B) significantly improves hardenability, enabling Grade 10.9 mechanical properties to be achieved with a leaner alloy composition. All values are maximum unless a range is indicated.
