Value Collection MPZX03008-050BX M3x0.5 Pan Head Screw 50pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MPZX03008-050BX is a metric machine screw with a pan head and Pozidriv drive, manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel in Grade A2 per DIN 7985. The screw features an M3x0.5 thread size and an 8 mm length under head, with a bright uncoated finish. Sold in a minimum order quantity of 50, this fastener is suited for applications where corrosion resistance and a low-profile head profile are required. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and assembly professionals working with metric hardware will find this screw appropriate for light-duty panel and component fastening.

This fastener is designed for use in general industrial, electronic, and mechanical assembly applications where metric DIN-standard hardware is specified. The pan head geometry provides a wide bearing surface suitable for thin sheet metal, plastic enclosures, and equipment panels. The Pozidriv drive reduces cam-out compared to standard Phillips, making it well suited for production environments and power-tool installation. The stainless steel construction makes it a common choice in environments with moisture exposure or corrosive conditions.

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 7985-compliant metric machine screw for use in general industrial, electronic, and mechanical assemblies requiring an M3x0.5 pan head fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by assembly technicians and maintenance mechanics using a Pozidriv screwdriver or appropriate power driver bit — do not substitute a standard Phillips bit, as this will cause drive damage and cam-out. Ensure the mating thread is clean and properly tapped to M3x0.5 before installation. De-energize any electrical equipment before fastening panels or enclosures. Apply thread lubricant or anti-seize only if specified by the assembly drawing, as stainless fasteners are susceptible to galling when over-torqued.
