About the Hex Socket Cap Screw M5x55 A4 Stainless
The Hex Socket Cap Screw M5x55 A4 is a socket head cap screw with an M5 metric thread and a 55 mm nominal length, manufactured in A4 stainless steel — the 316-family austenitic grade alloyed with molybdenum for improved resistance to chlorides, salt spray and many process chemicals. The cylindrical head with internal hexagon drive allows high installation torque from a hex key and can sit in a counterbore for a flush finish. The comparatively long 55 mm length provides reach through spacers, thick sections or stacked components while keeping thread engagement at the far side of the joint. Property class, full or partial threading and certification requirements are confirmed at quotation, together with any requirement for matching A4 nuts and washers from the same range.

Typical applications
A 55 mm M5 cap screw is characteristic of clamping through thick housings, standoffs and frame sections — for example fastening assemblies where the screw must pass a deep counterbore before reaching the tapped part. The A4 grade keeps such long, hard-to-service joints protected in marine and outdoor installations.
