Value Collection MSCX05016-050BX M5x0.8 Fillister Screw 50pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSCX05016-050BX is a metric machine screw with a fillister head and slotted drive, sold in a box of 50. It is manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel (A2 grade) with a bright, uncoated finish, conforming to DIN 84 standards. The fillister head profile offers a taller head height and deeper slot than a pan head, providing a positive grip for slotted drivers in tight or recessed applications. These screws are measured length-under-head per DIN 84 convention and carry an M5x0.8 thread with a 16 mm length under head. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and fabricators working with metric assemblies will find these appropriate for general fastening duty in corrosion-resistant applications.

These screws are suited for light-to-medium duty metric fastening in industrial, marine, food-service, and general fabrication environments where stainless steel is specified for corrosion resistance. The M5x0.8 thread size is a standard metric coarse pitch, compatible with tapped holes and threaded inserts conforming to DIN or ISO metric specifications. The slotted drive makes them serviceable with basic flat-blade drivers in field or shop settings. Each box contains 50 screws, making this an appropriate quantity for production runs, maintenance stock, or repair kits.

Key Features

• Conforms to DIN 84 fastener standard for metric slotted fillister head screws
• Box quantity of 50 suits production and maintenance stocking needs

Compatibility

Designed for use in tapped metric M5x0.8 holes conforming to DIN or ISO metric thread standards, typical in light industrial assemblies, enclosures, and equipment requiring stainless steel fasteners.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a flat-blade screwdriver sized to the slot of an M5 fillister head screw. Verify the mating thread is M5x0.8 and that the tapped hole depth or nut stack accommodates a 16 mm length-under-head fastener. Do not overtighten stainless steel fasteners into stainless threads without anti-seize compound, as galling can occur. Torque to the specification called out in the applicable assembly drawing or engineering standard for M5 stainless hardware.
