Value Collection MSOX06012-050BX M6x1 Oval Slotted Screw 50pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSOX06012-050BX is a metric machine screw with an oval head and slotted drive, manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel (A2 grade) with a bright, uncoated finish. Conforming to DIN 964, this fastener has an M6x1 thread size and an overall length of 12 millimeters. The 18-8 stainless steel construction provides solid corrosion resistance for general-purpose and light industrial applications. Each box contains 50 pieces, making it a practical choice for service professionals, maintenance technicians, and tradespeople who need a reliable metric slotted fastener in quantity.

This screw is suited for use in HVAC equipment panels, electrical enclosures, plumbing fixtures, and light structural assemblies where a low-profile oval head and metric threading are required. The oval head sits slightly countersunk, producing a flush-to-slightly-raised profile that works well on sheet metal and machined surfaces. The slotted drive is compatible with standard flathead screwdrivers and can be driven with a cabinet-tip bit. The DIN 964 standard ensures dimensional consistency across replacement and production applications.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a standard flathead screwdriver or a cabinet-tip power bit sized for M6 slotted fasteners. Ensure mating threads or tapped holes are clean and free of debris before driving. When installing in electrical enclosures or control panels, de-energize all circuits per NFPA 70 (NEC) before beginning work. Do not overtighten stainless fasteners into stainless tapped holes, as galling can seize the threads permanently — apply an appropriate anti-seize compound when needed.
