Value Collection MSPX05010-050BX M5x0.8 Pan Head Screw 50pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSPX05010-050BX is a metric pan head machine screw with a slotted drive, designed for general fastening applications across industrial, mechanical, and assembly work. Manufactured from Grade 18-8 stainless steel (A2), this screw meets DIN 85 dimensional standards. The M5x0.8 thread pitch and 10 mm length under head make it a commonly specified fastener for light structural and hardware assemblies. The bright, uncoated finish maintains the natural corrosion resistance of the 18-8 alloy without additional surface treatment. Sold in a minimum order quantity of 50 pieces per box, this SKU suits bench stock replenishment and production line use.

This screw is appropriate for residential, commercial, and light industrial applications where a metric fastener with moderate corrosion resistance is required. The pan head profile provides a low-profile, wide-bearing surface suited to sheet metal, plastic housings, junction boxes, equipment panels, and similar assemblies. The slotted drive accommodates standard flat-blade screwdrivers and is commonly found in legacy equipment and DIN-spec machinery. Installers in HVAC, electrical, and mechanical trades use this fastener for panel assembly, component mounting, and equipment fabrication tasks.

Compatibility

Designed as a DIN 85 metric pan head slotted machine screw suitable for M5-threaded applications in equipment panels, sheet metal assemblies, plastic housings, and mechanical fixtures requiring a stainless steel fastener.

Installation Notes

Install using a flat-blade screwdriver sized to the slotted head to avoid cam-out and head damage. Verify that the mating thread depth and material are appropriate for the 10 mm fastener length before installation. When fastening into dissimilar metals, consult applicable galvanic compatibility guidelines to prevent corrosion at the joint. Do not overtighten stainless steel fasteners, as galling can occur without proper lubrication or torque control.
