Thermo King OEM M8 Socket-Head Screw Length X 557755
Official OEM Thermo King parts catalog entry for the Thermo King Screw-Soch M8 X (557755), verified by PEAK Thermo King and West Texas Thermo King Texas, Utah, Wyoming, Washington, Oregon, serving all of the USA.
Built for Performance: The Thermo King Screw-Soch M8 X (557755) supports secure assembly in temperature-control applications and integrates with Thermo King refrigeration system components where an M8 metric fastener is specified. West Texas Thermo King supplies certified Thermo King parts to maximize uptime and fleet reliability across the Permian Basin and West Texas.
Key Features & Customer Benefits
- M8 Metric Diameter – Provides standardized fit for common Thermo King fastener locations and simplifies parts stocking for fleets in Amarillo, Lubbock, and Odessa.
- Socket-style Drive – Enables high-torque installation and precise fastening in confined equipment spaces for consistent assembly integrity.
- OEM-grade Compatibility – Matches Thermo King component fastening conventions when the correct length and thread specification are confirmed, supporting long-term serviceability.
- Durability-focused Design – Supports corrosion-resistant material and finish options typical for transport refrigeration hardware, extending service intervals and reducing replacement frequency.
- Inventory Simplicity – M8 sizing fits multiple Thermo King mounting points, reducing part SKUs and improving parts-management efficiency for fleet operations.
Product Details
The Thermo King Screw-Soch M8 X (557755) is identified by its M8 metric nominal diameter; the final length is indicated by “X” and requires specification at time of order. “SOCH” designates a socket-style head commonly used in Thermo King fasteners and allows hex-socket installation. Material and finish options follow Thermo King OEM standards for transport refrigeration applications and are selected based on application requirements (for example, corrosion resistance in coastal or washdown environments). Confirm thread pitch, length, and material when ordering to ensure exact fit for specific Thermo King units or mounting locations.
Efficiency & Sustainability
Correct fastener selection supports overall refrigeration system efficiency by maintaining sealed assemblies and resisting vibration-related loosening. Using OEM-grade fasteners minimizes maintenance downtime and material waste. Parts installed to Thermo King specification help preserve fuel-efficient cooling performance across Smart Reefer SR-4, Precedent-series, and other Thermo King platforms while supporting fleet sustainability goals and compliance initiatives such as CARB Evergreen where applicable.
Installation & Maintenance Tips
Install with the manufacturer-recommended torque values and a properly sized hex key or driver for the socket-style head. Inspect fasteners during scheduled service intervals and replace any fasteners that show corrosion, thread damage, or loss of clamping force. Use thread-locking compounds only if specified by Thermo King service documentation and always confirm material compatibility before application.
Real-World Applications
This M8 socket-style fastener serves in reefer trailer assemblies, refrigeration unit mounts, blower and compressor brackets, and other Thermo King transport refrigeration fixtures where metric M8 hardware is specified. Specifying the correct length and thread ensures secure fitment for Precedent S-610M, S-610DE, Diesel Direct Electric, and Smart Reefer SR-4 service points when applicable.
Available for installation and service in Amarillo, Lubbock, Odessa, and throughout West Texas.
Backed by Thermo King’s engineering and supported by certified technicians at West Texas Thermo King, this component delivers lasting performance and uptime assurance for fleet operations.
