Value Collection MPPX05010-100BX M5x0.8 Pan Head Screw 100pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MPPX05010-100BX is a metric pan head machine screw with a Phillips drive, manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish. The M5x0.8 thread size and 10 mm length under head make this a standard fastener used across a wide range of light industrial, mechanical, and trade assembly applications. Conforming to DIN 7985, this screw meets recognized dimensional and tolerance standards for metric fasteners. The 18-8 stainless steel construction provides good corrosion resistance in mildly corrosive environments. Sold in a box of 100 pieces, this package is suited for shops, service vehicles, and job-site inventory replenishment.

These screws are used wherever a low-profile pan head and Phillips drive are specified in metric assemblies. Typical applications include HVAC equipment panels, electrical enclosures, plumbing fixture brackets, pump housings, and general sheet metal or light structural assembly. The pan head profile distributes clamp load over a wider bearing surface compared to flat or oval head styles, making it a common choice for thin-gauge material and plastic sub-assemblies. No special tooling is required beyond a standard Phillips driver or bit.

Key Features

• M5x0.8 thread size, 10 mm length under head per DIN 7985 standard
• 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in moderate environments
• Pan head profile provides broad bearing surface on thin or soft substrates
• Phillips drive compatible with standard hand and power drivers
• Bright, uncoated finish — no plating that can flake or introduce galvanic incompatibility
• Box quantity of 100 pieces for efficient job-site and shop stocking

Compatibility

Designed as a standard DIN 7985 metric pan head Phillips machine screw suitable for general mechanical assembly, equipment panels, and enclosures requiring an M5x0.8 fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a Phillips screwdriver or bit sized for an M5 pan head screw. Verify thread engagement depth before final torque to avoid stripping threads in tapped holes or thin material. When fastening into dissimilar metals, consider galvanic compatibility with the base material, as stainless steel can accelerate corrosion in aluminum assemblies in wet environments. Always de-energize electrical equipment and relieve system pressure before opening any panel or enclosure for fastener service.
