Value Collection MSFX06040-025BX M6x1 Flat Head Slotted Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSFX06040-025BX is a metric machine screw with a flat head and slotted drive, manufactured to DIN 963 standards. Built from 18-8 stainless steel (A2 grade), it delivers solid corrosion resistance for both indoor and outdoor fastening applications. The M6x1 thread pitch and 40 mm overall length make it a common fit across a wide range of mechanical assemblies. The bright, uncoated finish maintains the natural appearance of the stainless base material. This pack contains 25 screws, sold as a single unit quantity. Installation requires a standard flat-blade screwdriver sized to the M6 slotted head.

This screw is suited for general mechanical assembly work in HVAC equipment, plumbing fixtures, electrical enclosures, and light structural applications where corrosion resistance is a priority. The DIN 963 flat head profile allows the fastener to sit flush with or below the mating surface when installed in a countersunk hole, which is useful in panels, covers, and component mounting brackets. Trades including HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and millwrights commonly stock M6 metric fasteners for service and installation work.

Key Features

• DIN 963 standard flat head slotted profile for flush or countersunk installations
• 18-8 stainless steel construction, A2 grade, for corrosion resistance in wet or humid environments
• M6x1 metric thread with 40 mm overall length
• Bright, uncoated finish - no plating to chip or flake
• Sold in a pack of 25 for service stock or job-site inventory

Compatibility

Designed as a standard DIN 963 metric machine screw for use in any M6-tapped or M6 clearance-hole application requiring a flush-seating flat head fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a flat-blade screwdriver or slotted bit driver sized to match the M6 head. Countersink the mating material to the appropriate DIN 963 angle before driving to achieve full flush seating. When installing in electrical enclosures or HVAC equipment, de-energize the equipment and follow applicable NEC or equipment-manufacturer lockout procedures before beginning work. Avoid over-torquing stainless fasteners, as galling can occur - use appropriate thread lubricant if required by the application.
