Value Collection MSPX05020-050BX M5x0.8 Slotted Pan Head Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSPX05020-050BX is a metric pan head machine screw with a slotted drive, manufactured from grade 18-8 stainless steel (A2) with a bright, uncoated finish. Conforming to DIN 85, this fastener features an M5x0.8 thread size and a 20 mm length measured under the head. The pan head profile provides a low-profile, wide-bearing surface suited for general-purpose mechanical assemblies. Sold in a box of 50, this screw is a standard choice for maintenance technicians, mechanical assemblers, and trade professionals working with metric hardware in corrosion-resistant applications.

This fastener is appropriate for a wide range of light-duty to medium-duty assembly applications where metric threading and stainless steel corrosion resistance are required. Typical uses include equipment panels, enclosures, HVAC components, electrical cabinets, and plumbing fixture assemblies. The bright uncoated finish makes it suitable for both indoor and moderately corrosive outdoor environments. Installers working under DIN or metric standards will find this screw a straightforward replacement or assembly component in residential and commercial mechanical systems.

Compatibility

Designed for use in any metric-tapped application requiring an M5x0.8 pan head machine screw per the DIN 85 standard, including mechanical assemblies, enclosures, and equipment panels.

Installation Notes

Install using a standard flathead screwdriver sized to the slotted drive to avoid cam-out and slot damage. Verify the receiving threads are M5x0.8 before installation. Do not overtorque stainless steel fasteners, as galling can occur; applying an appropriate anti-seize compound is recommended in stainless-to-stainless assemblies. Follow applicable mechanical or equipment manufacturer specifications for fastener torque requirements.
