Value Collection MPPX05040-050BX M5x0.8 Pan Head Screw 50pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MPPX05040-050BX is a metric machine screw with a pan head and Phillips drive, manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel (A2 grade) with a bright, uncoated finish. It carries an M5x0.8 thread size and a 40 mm length measured under the head, conforming to DIN 7985 standards. These screws are suited for general mechanical assembly, enclosure fabrication, and equipment mounting where corrosion resistance and a clean fastener profile are required. This box contains 50 pieces, sold as a single package unit.

This screw sees common use in light industrial, HVAC equipment panels, electrical enclosures, and plumbing fixture assemblies where metric fasteners are specified. The pan head profile provides a low-profile bearing surface without the countersink requirement of flat-head styles. The Phillips drive is compatible with standard Phillips screwdrivers and power drivers. Applications typically call for these in sheet metal, plastic, or thin-stock assemblies where M5 threading is the design standard.

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose DIN 7985 metric machine screw for use in any assembly requiring an M5x0.8 pan head Phillips fastener in stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Install with a properly sized Phillips screwdriver or #2 Phillips bit to avoid cam-out and fastener damage. Do not mix stainless steel fasteners with carbon steel hardware in the same assembly, as galvanic corrosion can occur in wet environments. Verify thread engagement depth in the mating material before final torque to prevent stripping. Power tools should be set to a controlled torque setting appropriate for M5 fasteners in the mating material.
