Value Collection MPFX05020-100BX M5x0.8 Flat Head Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MPFX05020-100BX is an M5x0.8 flat head Phillips machine screw manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish. The screw has a 20 mm overall length and conforms to DIN 965, the international standard for countersunk flat head screws with Phillips drive. The 18-8 stainless steel construction provides solid corrosion resistance in general-purpose applications. These are sold in a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per box, making them suitable for production assembly, maintenance shops, and field service kits where metric fasteners are specified.

This screw is used in light to medium-duty mechanical assemblies requiring a flush or countersunk fastening point. Typical applications include equipment enclosures, panel mounting, HVAC component assembly, electrical fixture installation, and general sheet metal or machined-part fastening where an M5 metric thread is called out. The Phillips drive allows installation with standard hand tools or power drivers. The flat head design seats flush into countersunk holes, keeping mating surfaces clear of protrusions.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard DIN 965 metric machine screw for use in any application specifying an M5x0.8 flat head Phillips fastener with a 20 mm overall length.

Installation Notes

Install using a properly sized Phillips screwdriver or power driver bit to avoid cam-out and head damage. Ensure the receiving hole is countersunk to the correct DIN 965 angle before driving the screw flush. Derate torque when threading into softer base materials such as aluminum or plastic to prevent thread stripping. De-energize and lock out any equipment before performing fastener service on live electrical or mechanical systems.
