Value Collection 085005PS M3x0.5 Pan Head Slotted Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 085005PS is a metric pan head machine screw with a slotted drive, manufactured from Grade 4.8 steel with a zinc finish. The M3x0.5 thread and 6 mm length under head make it a standard fastener for light-duty mechanical assemblies, enclosures, and component mounting applications. It conforms to DIN 85 and ISO 1580 dimensional standards, ensuring interchangeability with other compliant hardware. The zinc coating provides basic corrosion resistance in indoor or sheltered environments. This screw is a common choice for technicians, assemblers, and tradespeople who need a reliable metric fastener in volume quantities.

This screw is suited for use in control panel assembly, electrical enclosures, HVAC equipment housing, and general sheet-metal or light-gauge component fastening. Its pan head profile sits flush against the workpiece surface without countersinking, making it appropriate for materials where a low-profile head is preferred. The slotted drive is compatible with standard flat-blade screwdrivers and bit drivers. This item is sold in minimum order quantities of 100 pieces per order, making it practical for production, service van stocking, or bench-stock replenishment.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hand or with a flat-blade screwdriver or bit driver rated for slotted fasteners. Power down or de-energize any electrical enclosure or assembly before inserting or removing fasteners in live equipment. Do not overtighten into thin sheet metal or plastic; verify that the base material thread engagement is adequate for the load. Follow applicable mechanical or electrical codes when installing fasteners in code-governed assemblies.
