Value Collection MPOX05020-050BX M5x0.8 Phillips Oval Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MPOX05020-050BX is a metric machine screw with an oval head and Phillips drive, manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel (Grade A2) to DIN 966 standard. The oval head profile sits slightly above the surface with a countersunk bearing face, providing a finished appearance in through-hole and countersunk applications. Thread size is M5x0.8 with an overall length of 20 millimeters. The bright, uncoated finish preserves the natural corrosion resistance of 18-8 stainless without added plating. These screws are sold in a minimum order quantity of 50 pieces per box, making them well suited for job-lot purchasing on installation and service work.

This fastener is used in light mechanical assemblies, equipment enclosures, electrical panel components, plumbing fixture trim, and HVAC access panel hardware where a flush-to-slightly-raised head profile is required. The Phillips drive is compatible with standard power drivers and manual screwdrivers. The M5x0.8 thread pitch is a common metric fastener size encountered in OEM equipment manufactured to metric standards, including imported HVAC, refrigeration, and control equipment.

Key Features

• Oval head with Phillips drive per DIN 966 standard for consistent geometry and driver fit
• 18-8 stainless steel (Grade A2) construction provides corrosion resistance in wet and outdoor service environments
• M5x0.8 thread size with 20 millimeter overall length suits a wide range of panel and bracket applications
• Bright, uncoated finish maintains dimensional accuracy and avoids plating buildup on threads
• Sold in 50-piece minimum order quantity for efficient stock replenishment

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 966 standard metric machine screw for use in any M5x0.8 threaded hole requiring an oval head Phillips fastener. Verify countersink angle and hole depth against the mating component before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a Phillips screwdriver or compatible power driver bit sized for M5 fasteners. Verify that the receiving hole is tapped to M5x0.8 and that the countersink profile matches the oval head bearing angle. Do not overtorque stainless steel fasteners, as the material is susceptible to galling under excessive rotational force. When used in electrical or HVAC enclosures, ensure all circuit power is de-energized before fastener work begins.
