Import MPOD030080-050BX M3x0.5 Oval Head Phillips Screw 50pk

Product Description

The IMPORT MPOD030080-050BX is a metric machine screw with an oval head and Phillips drive, manufactured from steel with a zinc-plated finish for corrosion resistance. It conforms to DIN 966, the international standard for oval countersunk head screws with Phillips drive. The thread size is M3x0.5 with a length under head of 8 millimeters, and the material is rated to Grade 4.8 tensile strength. This fastener is sold in a minimum order quantity of 50 pieces per package. Electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and general trade professionals use this screw when assembling or replacing panels, covers, and equipment enclosures that require a flush or slightly raised seating profile.

This screw is suited for light-duty mechanical assembly applications where metric fasteners are specified. Typical uses include securing sheet metal panels, control box covers, equipment housings, and enclosure assemblies in HVAC, electrical, and plumbing equipment. The oval head profile provides a low-profile finished appearance and is commonly found in factory-assembled equipment that requires service replacement fasteners. The zinc plating provides basic protection against moisture exposure in indoor mechanical room environments.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hand or with a Phillips screwdriver or bit driver. Ensure the mating hole is properly tapped or threaded to M3x0.5 specification before driving the screw. Do not overtighten Grade 4.8 fasteners in thin sheet metal applications, as this can strip threads or deform the substrate. Power down all electrical equipment before replacing or servicing fasteners on live panels or enclosures.
