Value Collection MSFX02508-100BX M2.5x0.45 Flat Head Screw 100pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSFX02508-100BX is a metric flat head slotted machine screw designed for general-purpose mechanical fastening in assemblies that require a flush or countersunk finish. Manufactured from Grade 18-8 stainless steel (A2) with a bright, uncoated surface, this fastener offers solid corrosion resistance without any additional plating. It carries an M2.5x0.45 thread size and an 8 mm overall length. The screw conforms to DIN 963, the international standard for countersunk slotted head machine screws. Sold in a box of 100, it is suited for production environments, maintenance shops, and precision assembly work where consistent metric fasteners are required.

This fastener fits applications where a low-profile, flush-mount screw is needed on metal, plastic, or composite panels. The slotted drive is compatible with standard flat-blade screwdrivers and is commonly used in electronics enclosures, instrument housings, HVAC control panels, and light mechanical assemblies. The M2.5 thread is a small-diameter metric pitch, making this screw appropriate for fine-thread, close-tolerance work in compact components. Professionals in electrical, HVAC, and general mechanical trades stock this size for panel and chassis work.

Key Features

• M2.5x0.45 metric thread for fine-pitch, small-diameter fastening
• Flat countersunk head per DIN 963 for flush-mount installations
• Slotted drive accepts standard flat-blade screwdrivers
• Grade 18-8 A2 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance
• Bright, uncoated finish with no plating that could affect thread tolerances
• Box of 100 units for production and service stock needs

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 963-compliant metric machine screw for use in any application requiring an M2.5x0.45 countersunk slotted fastener with an 8 mm overall length.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hand or with a flat-blade screwdriver sized to match the M2.5 slotted head. Ensure the receiving hole is properly countersunk to the DIN 963 head angle before driving the screw to achieve a flush fit. Do not over-torque small-diameter stainless fasteners, as galling can occur on stainless threads; apply an appropriate anti-seize compound if repeated removal is expected. Power down any electrical assembly before replacing panel fasteners in live equipment.
