Value Collection MPFX06040-050BX M6x1 Flat Head Phillips Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MPFX06040-050BX is a metric machine screw with a flat head and Phillips drive, manufactured from grade 18-8 stainless steel to DIN 965 standards. The flat countersunk head sits flush with the mating surface when installed, making it well suited for applications where a smooth, unobstructed surface finish is required. The bright, uncoated finish preserves the natural corrosion resistance of 18-8 stainless. Thread size is M6x1 with an overall length of 40 millimeters. This fastener ships in a minimum quantity of 50 pieces per box, consistent with typical trade procurement for mechanical assembly work.

This screw is used in a wide range of industrial, commercial, and mechanical assembly applications where metric fasteners and flush mounting are specified. Common use cases include machine panels, enclosures, brackets, and equipment frames where an M6 thread is called for. The DIN 965 standard governs the head geometry and dimensional tolerances, making these screws interchangeable with other DIN 965-compliant hardware. Installers working in HVAC equipment assembly, electrical enclosure fabrication, or general mechanical maintenance will find this fastener appropriate for stainless-specified metric applications.

Key Features

• M6x1 thread size, 40 millimeter overall length per DIN 965 standard
• Grade 18-8 A2 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance
• Flat countersunk head profile for flush surface installation
• Phillips drive for compatibility with standard power and hand drivers
• Bright, uncoated finish — no plating to chip, flake, or delaminate
• Sold in a box of 50 pieces to support production and service quantities

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 965-compliant metric machine screw suitable for any application requiring an M6x1 flat head Phillips fastener in stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Install using a Phillips No. 2 screwdriver or matching bit rated for the drive size. Countersink the mating material to the correct DIN 965 head angle before installation to achieve a proper flush seating. Avoid over-torquing stainless steel fasteners, as 18-8 alloys are susceptible to galling — apply an appropriate anti-seize compound when fastening into stainless or aluminum tapped holes. Follow applicable mechanical assembly codes and equipment manufacturer torque guidelines for the specific joint.
