Value Collection MPFX03006-100BX M3x0.5 Flat Head Screw 100pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MPFX03006-100BX is a metric machine screw with a flat head and Phillips drive, manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish. The screw follows the DIN 965 standard, which governs countersunk flat head screws with a cross recess. Thread size is M3x0.5 with an overall length of 6 millimeters. This fastener is suited for applications requiring corrosion resistance and a flush-mounted, countersunk installation. Sold in a box of 100 pieces, it is commonly used by maintenance technicians, electricians, HVAC installers, and assembly trades working with panel enclosures, equipment housings, and light-duty mechanical assemblies.

This screw is appropriate for light-duty fastening tasks in both residential and commercial service environments. Common applications include securing control panel covers, junction box faces, equipment access plates, and sheet metal components where a flush surface finish is required. The M3x0.5 thread size is a standard metric pitch used widely in electronic and mechanical enclosures. The stainless steel construction makes it suitable for environments with moderate moisture exposure where carbon steel fasteners would be prone to corrosion.

Key Features

• DIN 965 standard flat countersunk head with Phillips drive recess
• 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in damp or humid environments
• M3x0.5 thread size, 6 millimeter overall length — standard metric pitch for enclosures and equipment housings
• Bright, uncoated finish — no added coating that could affect thread fit or dimensional tolerances
• Box quantity of 100 pieces for service stock or assembly-line use
• No washer — clean countersunk seating against the mating surface

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service-stock fastener for any application requiring a DIN 965 M3x0.5 flat head Phillips machine screw in 18-8 stainless steel with a 6 millimeter overall length.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a countersunk hole sized for an M3 DIN 965 screw in the mating material. Use a properly sized Phillips bit to avoid cam-out and fastener damage. Power down any equipment before accessing panels or enclosures secured by these fasteners. Do not overtighten stainless steel fasteners, as the material is susceptible to galling — apply appropriate anti-gall lubricant when installing into stainless tapped holes.
