Value Collection M314D965 Flat Head Phillips Machine Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION M314D965 is a metric machine screw designed for general-purpose fastening in light mechanical assemblies. It features an M3x0.5 thread profile with a 14mm overall length and a flat head drive type of Phillips. The screw is manufactured from steel to material grade 4.8, which provides adequate tensile strength for standard clamping applications. A zinc finish is applied to the exterior surface, offering a basic level of corrosion resistance in low-exposure environments. This fastener conforms to DIN 965, the international standard governing countersunk flat head screws with Phillips drive. Installers in HVAC, electrical panel work, and light equipment assembly regularly use this type of screw.

This screw is suited for metric-threaded applications where a flush or countersunk head profile is required. The flat head design allows the fastener to sit flush with or below the mating surface when installed into a properly countersunk hole. At M3x0.5 thread size and 14mm overall length, it fits standard metric clearance and tapped-hole configurations found in sheet metal enclosures, control panels, brackets, and equipment housings in residential and light commercial trade work. No washer is included or required by design. The fastener is sold individually but is subject to a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per order.

Installation Notes

A licensed electrician, HVAC technician, or mechanical trade installer typically uses this fastener during panel assembly, bracket mounting, or equipment enclosure work. De-energize all electrical equipment before inserting fasteners into control panels or enclosures, in accordance with applicable NEC lockout/tagout requirements. Use a correctly sized Phillips screwdriver or bit to avoid cam-out and head damage. Ensure the mating hole is properly countersunk to DIN 965 specifications for correct flush seating.
