Value Collection MSOX08080-025BX M8x1.25 Oval Head Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSOX08080-025BX 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. The M8x1.25 thread and 80 mm overall length make it a mid-range fastener suited to precision assemblies where a low-profile, countersunk head profile is required. Conforming to DIN 964, this screw meets a recognized international fastener standard. The 18-8 A2 stainless construction provides corrosion resistance appropriate for general industrial, marine-adjacent, and food-service-adjacent applications. Installation is performed with a standard flat-blade screwdriver sized to the slotted recess.

This fastener is used wherever a metric M8 oval-head machine screw is called for in light-to-medium fabrication, equipment assembly, panel mounting, and maintenance applications. The DIN 964 designation makes it interchangeable with other DIN 964 M8x1.25 oval-head slotted screws. Typical installers include millwrights, maintenance technicians, HVAC sheet-metal fabricators, and equipment assembly personnel working with metric-dimensioned components.

Key Features

• M8x1.25 metric thread for compatibility with standard M8 tapped holes and nuts
• Oval (countersunk) head profile sits flush to slightly proud of the mating surface
• Slotted drive accepts standard flat-blade screwdrivers
• 18-8 A2 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance without plating
• Bright, uncoated finish — no coating to chip, flake, or contaminate sensitive assemblies
• DIN 964 standard ensures dimensional consistency and interchangeability

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 964 standard M8x1.25 metric machine screw, suitable for use with any M8x1.25 threaded hole or nut that accepts an oval-head slotted fastener per the DIN 964 specification.

Installation Notes

Install with a properly sized flat-blade screwdriver to avoid cam-out and slot damage. The receiving material should have a countersunk recess matching the DIN 964 oval-head angle to achieve the correct seating profile. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris before installation. Apply appropriate torque for the M8 stainless fastener class and joint material — consult applicable fastener torque tables rather than over-tightening, which can gall stainless threads.
