Value Collection MSPX05075-025BX M5x0.8 Pan Head Screw Din 85

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSPX05075-025BX is a metric pan head machine screw designed for general-purpose fastening in industrial, mechanical, and trade applications. Manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel to the A2 material grade, this screw provides solid corrosion resistance in wet or outdoor environments. It features a slotted drive and conforms to DIN 85, the internationally recognized standard for pan head screws. The thread size is M5x0.8 with a length under head of 75 mm. Each order ships as a box of 25 pieces, making it suitable for small to medium fastening tasks where a reliable metric fastener is required.

This screw is used across a wide range of applications including HVAC equipment panels, plumbing fixtures, electrical enclosures, pool equipment housings, and general sheet metal or light structural assembly. The pan head profile sits flush against flat or slightly curved mating surfaces and provides a broad bearing area without countersinking. The slotted drive is compatible with standard flat-tip screwdrivers and slotted bits. The bright, uncoated finish is typical for 18-8 stainless fasteners and is well-suited for environments where moderate corrosion resistance is needed without additional surface treatment.

Key Features

• DIN 85 standard — conforms to internationally recognized metric pan head fastener specification

Compatibility

Designed as a standard DIN 85 metric pan head machine screw for use wherever an M5x0.8 slotted fastener is specified in metric hardware applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hand or with a flat-tip screwdriver or slotted power bit; avoid over-torquing stainless fasteners as galling can occur, particularly when threading into stainless mating hardware. Apply an anti-seize compound when threading into stainless or aluminum tapped holes in high-vibration environments. Ensure the mating thread or nut is clean and free of debris before installation. Always de-energize equipment and follow applicable safety lockout procedures before replacing or installing fasteners on powered assemblies.
