Value Collection MSOXX08050-025BX M8x1.25 Oval Slotted Screw 25pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSOXX08050-025BX is an M8x1.25 oval head machine screw manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel to DIN 964 standards. The oval head profile provides a low-profile, countersunk appearance with a slightly domed top, while the slotted drive accommodates standard flat-blade screwdrivers. Grade 316 stainless steel offers superior corrosion resistance compared to Grade 304, making it well suited for wet, marine, and chemically aggressive environments. Each box contains 25 screws with an overall length of 50 mm and a bright, uncoated finish. These fasteners are installed by millwrights, marine technicians, plumbers, and general maintenance trades requiring metric hardware with strong corrosion resistance.

This screw is used in applications where metric fastening is required and corrosion resistance is a priority. Typical installations include marine equipment, food processing machinery, chemical processing enclosures, and outdoor structural assemblies. The DIN 964 standard ensures dimensional consistency for use in metric-threaded holes or alongside metric nuts and washers. The bright uncoated finish maintains dimensional accuracy and avoids coating buildup that could affect thread fit in close-tolerance applications.

Key Features

• Grade 316 A4 stainless steel construction for high corrosion resistance in marine and chemical environments
• DIN 964 dimensional standard ensures consistent thread geometry and head dimensions
• Oval head profile with slotted drive for low-profile countersunk installations
• M8x1.25 thread size with 50 mm overall length
• Bright uncoated finish preserves tight dimensional tolerances
• Sold in a box of 25 with a minimum order quantity of 25 units

Compatibility

Designed for use in M8x1.25 metric-threaded applications requiring DIN 964 oval head slotted fasteners. Suitable for use with standard metric nuts, threaded inserts, and tapped holes conforming to M8 coarse-thread specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a flat-blade screwdriver sized to the slotted drive to avoid cam-out and head damage. Confirm the mating hole or nut is tapped to M8x1.25 before installation. In corrosive or immersed environments, apply an appropriate anti-seize compound compatible with stainless steel to prevent galling during tightening. Do not mix Grade 316 fasteners with dissimilar metals in saltwater environments without accounting for galvanic corrosion risk.
