Value Collection MSFX05008-050BX M5x0.8 Flat Head Slotted Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSFX05008-050BX is a metric flat head slotted machine screw manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish. It features an M5x0.8 thread size and an 8 mm overall length. The flat head profile sits flush with or below the mating surface when properly countersunk, making it a common choice for assemblies where a low-profile fastener is required. This screw conforms to DIN 963 dimensional standards. Machinists, millwrights, maintenance technicians, and fabricators install these fasteners across a wide range of light industrial, mechanical, and structural assembly applications. This listing covers a box quantity of 50 pieces.

These screws are used in general mechanical assemblies, panel mounting, machine guards, enclosures, and equipment frames where a metric fastener and corrosion resistance are both required. The 18-8 grade stainless steel construction makes them well suited for environments with moderate moisture exposure. The DIN 963 standard ensures consistent head geometry and thread form, supporting interchangeability across metric-spec equipment common in industrial and commercial maintenance settings.

Key Features

• M5x0.8 thread with 8 mm overall length for precise metric fitment
• Flat head, slotted drive per DIN 963 for flush or countersunk installation
• 18-8 Grade A2 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance
• Bright, uncoated finish maintains dimensional accuracy and metallic appearance
• Sold in a box of 50 pieces to support production and service work

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 963-compliant metric machine screw for use in any application requiring an M5x0.8 flat head slotted fastener in stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Install using a properly sized flat-blade screwdriver to avoid cam-out and slot damage. The mating material must be tapped or fitted with a threaded insert to the M5x0.8 specification before installation. For flush seating, ensure the countersink angle matches the DIN 963 flat head profile. Power down any equipment fully before disassembly or fastener replacement in live machinery.
