Value Collection MPPX02508-100BX M2.5x0.45 Pan Head Screw 100pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MPPX02508-100BX is an M2.5x0.45 pan head Phillips machine screw manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel (A2 grade) with a bright, uncoated finish. Conforming to DIN 7985, this fastener has an 8 mm length under head and an 8 mm overall length. The pan head profile provides a wide bearing surface and low-profile seating, while the Phillips drive allows for efficient installation with standard hand or power tools. This box contains 100 screws, making it suitable for production assembly, equipment repair, and maintenance applications where consistent metric fasteners are required.

These screws are used across a wide range of light-duty metric assembly applications including electrical enclosures, HVAC equipment panels, instrumentation housings, and general mechanical assemblies. The M2.5 thread size is common in small-appliance and instrument work. The 18-8 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in mildly wet or outdoor-exposed environments. Installers working in plumbing equipment rooms, electrical panels, and HVAC air handler cabinets frequently use this size for panel covers and mounting hardware.

Designed as a standard DIN 7985 M2.5x0.45 pan head Phillips machine screw suitable for metric-threaded assemblies requiring an A2 stainless steel fastener of this thread and length.

Installation Notes

Install using a Phillips No. 1 screwdriver or compatible power driver bit. De-energize any electrical equipment before accessing panels or enclosures secured by these screws. Apply proper torque for M2.5 stainless fasteners to avoid galling — use a calibrated torque driver where the assembly specification requires it. Stainless fasteners can be susceptible to galling under high-speed power driving; hand-start threads before applying power.
