Value Collection MPOX06016-050BX M6x1 Phillips Oval Head Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MPOX06016-050BX is a metric machine screw with an oval head and Phillips drive, manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel (A2 grade) with a bright, uncoated finish. It conforms to DIN 966 standards and features an M6x1 thread size with a 16 mm overall length. The oval head profile sits flush-to-slightly-countersunk against the mating surface, making it a common choice where a low-profile, finished appearance is required. This fastener is sold in a minimum quantity of 50 pieces per order and is installed by maintenance technicians, millwrights, HVAC mechanics, and general trade professionals working with metric-threaded assemblies.

This screw is suited for light- to medium-duty fastening applications in equipment panels, enclosures, fixtures, and assemblies where corrosion resistance is a priority. The 18-8 A2 stainless steel composition provides good resistance to rust and oxidation, making it appropriate for indoor and moderately exposed environments. The Phillips drive is compatible with standard Phillips bits and screwdrivers in common use across HVAC, electrical, and mechanical service trades.

Key Features

• M6x1 thread size, 16 mm overall length per DIN 966 standard
• Oval head profile for low-profile, countersunk-style seating
• 18-8 stainless steel (A2 grade) for corrosion resistance without coating
• Bright, uncoated finish — no plating or surface treatment to crack or flake
• Phillips drive accepts standard Phillips bits (no specialty tooling required)
• Sold in boxes of 50 — appropriate for job-site stock and service inventory

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 966 metric oval-head machine screw for use in any M6-tapped hole or with an M6 nut in metric-threaded assemblies requiring an oval-head Phillips drive fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a properly sized Phillips screwdriver or bit; using an undersized driver can strip the recess. Verify the mating hole is tapped or clearance-drilled for M6 metric threads before driving. For countersunk applications, ensure the receiving material is chamfered to match the oval head angle. Stainless-steel fasteners are susceptible to galling — apply an appropriate anti-seize compound when threading into stainless or aluminum tapped holes.
