Value Collection MSFXX02020-050BX Flat Head Slotted Screw M2

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSFXX02020-050BX is a metric machine screw with a flat head and slotted drive, manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel with a bright, uncoated finish. Conforming to DIN 963, this fastener features an M2x0.4 thread size and an overall length of 20 mm. Grade 316 stainless steel provides strong corrosion resistance, making it suitable for demanding environments where exposure to moisture, chemicals, or salt is a concern. Each box contains 50 screws. This screw is installed by mechanical contractors, maintenance technicians, and equipment assemblers working with metric hardware.

This flat head slotted machine screw is used in light mechanical assemblies, enclosures, instrumentation panels, and equipment housings where a flush-mount fastener is required. The flat head profile sits flush with or below the mating surface when installed in a countersunk hole, keeping the surface clear of protrusions. Applications include marine hardware, food service equipment, chemical processing assemblies, and general industrial fabrication where Grade 316 stainless steel is specified for its elevated corrosion resistance over Grade 304.

Key Features

• Grade 316 A4 stainless steel construction for strong corrosion resistance in wet and chemical environments
• Flat head profile countersinks flush with the work surface for clean, low-profile installations
• Slotted drive compatible with standard flat-blade screwdrivers
• Conforms to DIN 963 fastener standard for consistent dimensional accuracy
• M2x0.4 thread size with 20 mm overall length suits fine-pitch metric assembly work
• Bright, uncoated finish retains natural stainless steel appearance

Compatibility

Designed for use in any application requiring a DIN 963 flat head slotted machine screw in M2x0.4 thread size and 20 mm length, including metric-threaded inserts, nuts, and tapped holes conforming to M2x0.4 thread standards.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a standard flat-blade screwdriver sized to the M2 slot. A countersunk pilot hole is required to achieve a flush seating surface for the flat head profile. De-energize and lock out any equipment before fastener replacement in live assemblies. Avoid over-torquing small-diameter stainless steel screws, as galling can occur; applying an anti-seize compound to the threads is recommended in stainless-to-stainless applications.
