Socket head screw for Terex HC230

The socket head screw 0562 161 15 is a mechanical fastener used to secure structural or mechanical components within the Terex HC230 crane. The component features a cylindrical head with an internal hexagonal drive, allowing for installation using a hex key or Allen wrench. This design is particularly useful for applications where space is limited and a traditional external hex head would be impractical to reach or tighten.

This fastener is manufactured to specific dimensions, featuring a metric thread diameter of 16 millimeters and an overall length of 115 millimeters. It is intended for use in assemblies that experience significant mechanical loads and operational vibrations, ensuring that components remain properly aligned and secured during crane operation. The internal drive configuration allows for high torque application, which is necessary to maintain the integrity of the connection in heavy machinery environments.

Socket head screws are commonly used in heavy equipment to join plates, housings, and structural members. By providing a secure, flush-fitting connection, these fasteners help maintain the stability of the machine assembly. Proper installation ensures that the structural components of the crane remain fixed under the stresses of daily operation.
