Countersunk head screw for Liebherr LTM 1070-4.1

The 10 18 14 88 countersunk head screw serves as a precision fastening component for the Liebherr LTM 1070-4.1 all-terrain crane. Its countersunk design allows the head to sit flush with or below the surface of the material, which is necessary for applications where a smooth finish or clearance is required. This screw features a metric thread with a 6 mm diameter and a length of 16 mm, manufactured to a 4.8 strength class specification according to the ISO 7046-1 standard.

This component is used in various assemblies on the Liebherr LTM 1070-4.1, including the attachment of body panels, protective covers, and interior cabin elements. Proper installation requires a pre-drilled countersunk hole to ensure the head seats correctly. By maintaining secure attachment of these panels and covers, the screw helps protect the internal systems of the crane from environmental exposure and debris.

Countersunk screws are common mechanical fasteners used throughout heavy machinery to join components while minimizing surface protrusions. They rely on the geometry of the head to distribute clamping force evenly across the countersunk seat, providing a stable connection for non-structural or semi-structural panels and covers across the machine structure.
