Value Collection 656512PS M5x0.8 Flat Slotted Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 656512PS is a metric machine screw with a flat head and slotted drive, manufactured from Grade 4.8 steel with a zinc finish. Conforming to DIN 963 and ISO 2009 standards, this fastener features an M5x0.8 thread and an overall length of 12 mm. It is suited for general-purpose mechanical assemblies where a flush-seating fastener is required. Electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general mechanical contractors use flat head machine screws like this when securing panels, brackets, and equipment housings where a countersunk seating surface is present. The zinc finish provides basic corrosion resistance for indoor and light-duty applications.

This screw is a standard metric fastener appropriate for light-duty structural and mechanical assemblies across residential and commercial trade applications. The M5x0.8 thread pitch is one of the most common metric sizes encountered in equipment panels, junction boxes, HVAC component brackets, and plumbing fixture hardware. Sold in a minimum order quantity of 100 units, this SKU is intended for shop stock, service van inventory, or project-specific bulk use where consistent fastener supply is needed.

Key Features

• Flat countersunk head profile for flush-mount installations
• Slotted drive compatible with standard flat-blade screwdrivers
• M5x0.8 metric thread — one of the most widely used metric fastener sizes in trade applications
• Grade 4.8 steel construction for general-purpose mechanical strength
• Zinc finish for basic corrosion protection in dry or low-moisture environments
• Meets DIN 963 and ISO 2009 dimensional and performance standards

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose metric machine screw for any application requiring an M5x0.8 thread pitch with a flat countersunk head and slotted drive, conforming to DIN 963 and ISO 2009 standards.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a correctly sized flat-blade screwdriver or slotted bit to avoid cam-out and head damage. The mating material must be tapped or fitted with an appropriate M5x0.8 nut or threaded insert prior to fastening. Always verify that the countersink angle of the receiving material matches the screw head profile before driving. Power down all electrical equipment before working in any panel or enclosure where these fasteners are being installed or removed.
