Value Collection M310D965 M3x0.5 Flat Head Phillips Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION M310D965 is a metric machine screw designed for general-purpose mechanical fastening in a wide range of industrial and commercial applications. It features an M3x0.5 thread profile with a 10 mm overall length and a flat, countersunk head driven by a Phillips bit. Manufactured from steel to material grade 4.8 and finished with a zinc coating for basic corrosion resistance, this screw conforms to DIN 965 standards. It is a straightforward, dependable fastener suited for technicians and assemblers working with metric-threaded components in light-duty assemblies.

This screw is appropriate for use in light mechanical assemblies, electronic enclosures, HVAC equipment panels, and other applications requiring a low-profile countersunk fastener. The flat head sits flush with or below the mating surface when installed in a properly chamfered hole, making it well-suited for panels, brackets, and components where a protruding head would interfere with clearance or fit. It is supplied individually but is subject to a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per order.

Key Features

• M3x0.5 metric thread size conforming to DIN 965 standard
• 10 mm overall length measured from top of head
• Flat countersunk head for flush or below-surface installation
• Phillips drive for common hand and power tool compatibility
• Steel construction, material grade 4.8
• Zinc finish provides baseline corrosion protection

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 965 metric machine screw for use in any application requiring an M3x0.5 flat head Phillips fastener in light-duty steel or aluminum assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a Phillips screwdriver or a Phillips bit in a hand drill or power driver. The mating hole should be properly chamfered to accept the flat head countersink angle specified by DIN 965. Avoid over-torquing, as grade 4.8 steel has moderate tensile strength and small-diameter screws are susceptible to thread stripping or head cam-out under excessive force. Ensure threads in the receiving material are clean and free of debris before driving.
