Value Collection M216D965 M2x0.4 16mm Flat Head Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION M216D965 is a metric machine screw designed for general-purpose fastening in light mechanical assemblies, electronics enclosures, and precision equipment. It features an M2x0.4 thread and a 16 mm overall length, making it well-suited for tight-clearance applications where a low-profile head is required. The flat head design allows the screw to sit flush with or below the mating surface when countersunk. Manufactured from steel with a zinc finish, it meets Grade 4.8 strength requirements and conforms to DIN 965. Installation is performed with a standard Phillips driver. This fastener is commonly stocked and installed by mechanical assemblers, field technicians, and maintenance professionals.

The M216D965 is appropriate for use in residential and commercial light-duty mechanical assemblies, instrument panels, electrical enclosures, and equipment chassis where a flush-mount fastener is specified. The metric M2x0.4 thread pitch is a common specification in electronics hardware, small appliance components, and OEM equipment panels. Countersunk clearance holes to DIN 965 dimensions are required for a proper flush seat. This screw is sold in a package quantity of one unit with a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces.

Key Features

• M2x0.4 thread with 16 mm overall length for use in countersunk through-hole applications
• Flat head profile seats flush with the surface when installed in a properly countersunk hole
• Phillips drive for use with standard Phillips No. 0 or No. 1 screwdrivers
• Grade 4.8 steel construction provides adequate tensile strength for light-duty fastening
• Zinc finish offers basic corrosion resistance for indoor or protected environments
• Conforms to DIN 965 fastener standard for dimensional consistency

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 965-compliant metric machine screw for use in M2x0.4 tapped holes or with appropriate nuts in light mechanical and electronic assemblies requiring a flush-mount fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a properly sized countersunk clearance hole dimensioned to DIN 965 specifications to achieve a flush seat. Use a Phillips No. 0 or No. 1 screwdriver sized to fit the M2 head recess to avoid cam-out and head damage. Do not over-torque this screw, as Grade 4.8 steel at M2 diameter has limited torsional capacity. Ensure the mating hole is clean and free of debris before driving.
