Value Collection MPPX03006-100BX M3x0.5 Pan Head Screw 100pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MPPX03006-100BX is an M3x0.5 pan head Phillips machine screw manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish. Conforming to DIN 7985, this fastener has a 6mm length measured under the head and is sold in a box of 100. The pan head profile provides a wide bearing surface and low-profile head, while the Phillips drive allows for positive engagement with standard screwdrivers and power bits. This fastener is suited for light to medium-duty assembly work where corrosion resistance and metric dimensioning are required. Machinists, millwrights, field technicians, and assembly professionals commonly use this screw in equipment fabrication and maintenance applications.

This screw is used in a wide range of residential and commercial assembly and fabrication scenarios where a metric fastener with corrosion-resistant properties is specified. Typical applications include electrical enclosure assembly, HVAC equipment panels, plumbing fixture mounting, and general equipment maintenance. The M3x0.5 thread pitch and 6mm shank length make it appropriate for thin-gauge materials and compact fastening points. The DIN 7985 standard ensures dimensional consistency across compatible hardware.

Installation Notes

Install using a properly sized Phillips screwdriver or bit to avoid cam-out and head damage. Verify thread engagement depth in the mating material before final torque to prevent stripping in thin sections. Do not mix metric and unified thread fasteners in the same assembly. When installing in stainless-to-stainless applications, apply an anti-seize compound to reduce the risk of galling during installation.
