Screw M10x45

Screw DIN 912 - M10x45 mm, AISI 304 (A2), Alen bolt, Type of steel - A2

The Strofix screw M10×45 is an AISI 304 (A2) stainless-steel hex socket head cap screw manufactured to DIN 912 standard. The screw has an M10 thread and 45 mm length. It is tightened using a hex (Allen) key.

The DIN 912 hex socket cap screw is a standard fastener used in railing, balustrade, and architectural glass fixing assemblies. The recessed hex socket head allows flush or countersunk mounting where the bolt head must not protrude above the surface. The M10 thread matches the most common bolt pattern used in Strofix railing post base plates and structural fixing assemblies. AISI 304 (A2 grade) stainless steel provides corrosion resistance for both interior and exterior installations.

This SKU is a single fixed configuration — M10×45 mm, AISI 304 only.

Use cases:

• Securing railing post base plates to anchor rods or threaded inserts
• Glass clamp and glass adaptor bolt assemblies
• Spigot base glass clamp fixing
• General stainless-steel fastening in railing and balustrade systems
• Any M10 bolt application requiring a hex socket head in AISI 304

About Anchors & Screws

Anchors and screws are the mechanical fasteners that secure glass adaptors, canopy brackets, railing posts, French balcony holders and other architectural hardware to the building substrate. They transfer structural loads from the visible hardware into concrete, masonry, insulated façades or timber frames.

Strofix supplies 16 products in this category: steel anchors in four lengths (150, 220, 320 and 400 mm) with rod diameters of Ø16 and Ø20 mm, an anchor sleeve (M10 × 80 mm), a spacer tube (L = 100 mm), individual screws (M10 × 45), cup nuts (M10), washers, double stainless-steel threads (M8, 60 and 100 mm), a wood screw (Ø10 × 180 mm), and pre-matched screw-and-fastener sets for 1, 2, 3 or 4 glass canopy brackets — configurable for masonry without insulation, masonry with insulation and timber-frame construction.

Materials are AISI 304 stainless steel and S235 structural steel. The correct fastener depends on wall type, hardware product, bolt size and required embedment depth.
