Value Collection M325D965 M3x0.5 Flat Head Phillips Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION M325D965 is a metric machine screw designed for general-purpose fastening applications across industrial, mechanical, and electrical assembly work. It features an M3x0.5 thread profile, a flat (countersunk) head, and a Phillips drive. The screw is manufactured from steel to Grade 4.8 and finished with a zinc coating for basic corrosion resistance. The overall length is 25 millimeters, which is also the length under the head, conforming to DIN 965 dimensional standards. Sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces, this fastener suits shops and technicians sourcing in volume.

This screw is suited for use in sheet metal panels, electronic enclosures, control boxes, and light mechanical assemblies where a flush, countersunk finish is required. The flat head seats flush into a countersunk hole, eliminating protrusions that could interfere with mating surfaces or moving components. The Phillips drive works with standard screwdrivers and power bits common in trade and assembly environments. It is appropriate for residential and commercial equipment assembly, maintenance panels, and HVAC or electrical enclosure work where M3 metric fasteners are specified.

Key Features

• M3x0.5 thread for compatibility with standard metric M3 tapped holes and nuts
• Flat (countersunk) head seats flush per DIN 965 specification
• Phillips drive accepts standard No. 1 Phillips bits and screwdrivers
• Grade 4.8 steel construction provides adequate tensile strength for light-duty fastening
• Zinc finish offers basic corrosion resistance in dry indoor environments
• 25 millimeter overall length with no washer, minimizing hardware stack-up

Compatibility

Designed as a standard DIN 965 metric machine screw for use in any application specifying an M3x0.5 flat head Phillips fastener at 25 millimeters overall length.

Installation Notes

Install using a No. 1 Phillips screwdriver or matching power bit rated for the fastener size. Ensure the receiving hole is properly countersunk to the DIN 965 head angle before driving to avoid head deformation or cracking of the mating material. Do not overtighten Grade 4.8 fasteners in soft materials such as aluminum or plastic, as the thread may strip. Power down any equipment and follow applicable electrical or mechanical lockout procedures before accessing enclosures or panels during fastener replacement.
