Value Collection MPPX05045-050BX M5x0.8 Pan Head Screw 50pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MPPX05045-050BX is a metric machine screw with a pan head and Phillips drive, sold in a box of 50. It is manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel (A2 grade) with a bright, uncoated finish. The thread size is M5x0.8 and the length under the head measures 45 mm. These screws conform to DIN 7985, the international standard governing pan head Phillips machine screws. They are a common choice for general mechanical assembly, enclosures, and equipment fabrication where corrosion resistance and a low-profile head are required. A licensed mechanic, millwright, or maintenance technician would typically install these using a standard Phillips driver or bit.

These screws are suited for light to medium-duty fastening applications in metal, plastic, and composite assemblies. The M5x0.8 thread pitch and 45 mm shank length make them appropriate for through-bolt and tapped-hole installations in panel, bracket, and enclosure work. The 18-8 stainless steel construction provides good resistance to corrosion and oxidation, making them usable in both indoor and moderately wet or outdoor environments. They are commonly specified in HVAC equipment housings, electrical enclosures, pump assemblies, and general industrial fabrication.

Key Features

• M5x0.8 metric thread — conforms to DIN 7985 standard for pan head Phillips machine screws
• 18-8 stainless steel (A2 grade) construction for corrosion and oxidation resistance
• Pan head profile provides a broad bearing surface and low-profile installation
• Bright, uncoated finish — no plating buildup that could affect thread fit
• 45 mm length under head suits through-bolt and deeper tapped-hole applications
• Sold in a box of 50 — minimum order quantity of 50 units per order

Compatibility

Designed for use in any tapped M5x0.8 hole or with an M5 nut in assemblies requiring a DIN 7985 pan head Phillips machine screw in stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Install with a Phillips driver or bit sized for the M5 head to avoid cam-out and head damage. Confirm the receiving thread or nut is also M5x0.8 metric before installation. In stainless steel fastener applications, apply an appropriate anti-seize compound to prevent galling during torquing. Do not mix metric and inch-standard hardware in the same assembly.
