Value Collection MPFZX08040-025BX M8x1.25 Pan Head Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MPFZX08040-025BX is a metric machine screw with an M8x1.25 thread and 40mm length under head. It features a pan head profile and Pozidriv drive, machined from grade 18-8 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish. This fastener meets DIN 7985 standards and carries an A2 corrosion-resistance designation, making it suitable for applications where exposure to moisture or mild chemicals is a concern. It is used by electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general tradespeople when assembling or securing equipment panels, brackets, enclosures, and mechanical components that require a metric thread pattern.

This screw is appropriate for both residential and light commercial trade applications. Its pan head profile provides a broad bearing surface suitable for sheet metal, plastic, and fabricated assemblies. The Pozidriv drive offers improved torque transfer compared to a standard Phillips drive, reducing cam-out during installation with a compatible bit. Typical uses include equipment panel assembly, junction box mounting, and bracket fastening in HVAC, plumbing, and electrical service work.

Key Features

• M8x1.25 metric thread for compatibility with standard metric tapped holes and nuts
• 40mm length under head provides solid thread engagement in medium-depth assemblies
• Pan head profile distributes clamping load across a wide bearing surface
• Pozidriv drive reduces cam-out compared to standard Phillips during power-tool installation
• Grade 18-8 stainless steel with A2 designation for corrosion resistance in damp environments
• Bright, uncoated finish meets DIN 7985 dimensional standard

Compatibility

Designed for use in any application requiring a metric M8x1.25 pan head machine screw per DIN 7985, including equipment assemblies, enclosures, and brackets that accept an M8 threaded fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified tradesperson familiar with metric fastener specifications. Use a Pozidriv PZ2 or PZ3 bit matched to the screw head size to avoid drive damage. Verify that the receiving thread or nut matches the M8x1.25 pitch before driving to prevent cross-threading. Do not exceed the torque capacity of the stainless steel material, as 18-8 alloy is susceptible to galling if driven too aggressively without lubrication.
