Value Collection KP75089 M3x0.5 Pan Head Phillips Screw 100pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION KP75089 is a metric pan head machine screw intended for general mechanical assembly and light fabrication work. The screw features an M3x0.5 thread profile with a Phillips drive pan head and a 6 mm length under head. Manufactured from Grade 4.8 steel with a zinc-plated finish, this fastener delivers adequate tensile strength for standard clamping applications while the zinc coating provides basic corrosion resistance in indoor and sheltered environments. This package contains 100 screws, making it a practical bench stock or replenishment quantity for technicians and assemblers who work through small metric fasteners regularly.

This screw is suited for light-duty mechanical assemblies in residential and commercial service environments. Common applications include securing sheet metal panels, electrical enclosures, control boards, equipment covers, and similar components where an M3x0.5 metric thread is specified. The pan head profile distributes clamping load across a broad bearing surface without requiring a countersunk hole, making it appropriate for through-hole assembly into drilled or tapped stock material. Electricians, HVAC technicians, and equipment service professionals commonly stock this size for panel and enclosure work.

Key Features

• M3x0.5 metric thread for compatibility with standard M3 tapped holes and hardware
• 6 mm length under head suits thin panel and light bracket assemblies
• Grade 4.8 steel construction provides adequate tensile strength for general-purpose fastening
• Zinc-plated finish for basic corrosion resistance in indoor applications
• Phillips pan head drive for fast installation with standard Phillips bits and drivers
• Conforms to JIS-1111 fastener standard for dimensional consistency
• 100-piece pack supports bench stock replenishment and bulk service use

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose metric machine screw for use in any application requiring an M3x0.5 thread, pan head profile, and Phillips drive in conformance with the JIS-1111 fastener standard.

Installation Notes

Verify that the mating tapped hole or nut is machined to M3x0.5 metric specification before installation to avoid cross-threading. Use a correctly sized Phillips driver bit to prevent cam-out and head damage, particularly in thin sheet metal applications. Apply only hand-tool torque appropriate for Grade 4.8 M3 fasteners and do not exceed the rated clamp load for the material being fastened. In electrical enclosure applications, follow applicable NEC requirements for fastener use and panel integrity.
