Value Collection MSPX03510-050BX M3.5x0.6 Pan Head Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSPX03510-050BX is a metric pan head machine screw with a slotted drive, manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel (Grade A2) to DIN 85 standards. The M3.5x0.6 thread pitch and 10 mm length under head make this screw well suited to light mechanical assemblies, electrical enclosures, and equipment panels where corrosion resistance matters. The bright, uncoated finish preserves the natural stainless appearance without additional plating. This box contains 50 pieces, sold as a single packaged unit. Installers in HVAC, electrical, and general mechanical trades keep these on hand for routine fastening work on control panels, junction boxes, and sheet-metal subassemblies.

These screws are used wherever a small-diameter metric fastener is required in corrosion-prone or wash-down environments. Common applications include light-gauge sheet metal assemblies, electrical enclosures, and instrumentation panels. The DIN 85 standard ensures consistent head geometry and thread tolerance, making them interchangeable with other DIN 85-compliant hardware. The 18-8 stainless steel composition resists rust and mild chemical exposure, which is why electricians, HVAC technicians, and equipment fabricators regularly specify this grade for indoor and semi-exposed installations.

Key Features

• M3.5x0.6 thread with 10 mm length under head per DIN 85 standard
• 18-8 stainless steel (Grade A2) for corrosion resistance in damp or chemical-adjacent environments
• Pan head profile distributes clamping load over a broad bearing surface
• Slotted drive compatible with standard flathead screwdrivers
• Bright, uncoated finish — no plating to chip or delaminate
• Box of 50 pieces, no washer, length measured under head

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 85-standard metric pan head machine screw suitable for M3.5x0.6 threaded holes or nuts in light mechanical, electrical, and HVAC control-panel assemblies.

Installation Notes

Mechanical, electrical, or HVAC technicians typically install these screws using a standard flathead screwdriver or a slotted bit on a power driver set to a low torque clutch setting to avoid stripping the slot. Always de-energize electrical equipment before fastening inside panels, and follow NEC or applicable local codes for enclosure work. Do not overtighten stainless fasteners into stainless threaded holes without applying an anti-seize compound, as galling can occur. Verify thread engagement depth meets the requirements of the mating component before final assembly.
