Value Collection MSTX08025-050BX M8x1.25 Truss Head Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MSTX08025-050BX is a metric machine screw featuring a truss head profile and slotted drive, manufactured from grade 18-8 stainless steel (A2) with a bright, uncoated finish. The truss head provides a wide, low-profile bearing surface that distributes clamping load across a larger area compared to a standard pan or round head. The M8x1.25 thread size and 25 mm length under head make this fastener well suited for medium-duty mechanical assemblies where corrosion resistance is required. It conforms to NFE 27128, the French national standard for metric machine screws. This package contains 5 screws.

This screw is used in general mechanical and industrial assembly work where a metric M8 fastener is called for and the installation environment demands stainless steel corrosion resistance. The truss head and slotted drive configuration suits applications where a standard flat-blade tool is preferred or where head clearance is a factor. Typical use cases include HVAC equipment panels, electrical enclosures, pump housings, and similar light-to-medium structural connections in corrosive or damp environments.

Key Features

• M8x1.25 metric thread for broad hardware compatibility
• Truss head design offers a wide low-profile bearing surface
• Slotted drive accepts standard flat-blade screwdrivers and bits
• Grade 18-8 A2 stainless steel construction resists corrosion and oxidation
• Bright uncoated finish — no coating to flake or contaminate assemblies
• Conforms to NFE 27128 fastener standard

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style metric machine screw replacement for M8x1.25 threaded applications requiring a truss head, slotted drive, and NFE 27128 compliance in stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a flat-blade screwdriver or slotted bit driver sized to the M8 head. Always verify thread engagement and hole tapping depth before final torque to avoid cross-threading. In stainless steel fastener applications, apply an anti-seize compound to the threads to prevent galling during installation. Ensure mating tapped holes meet the M8x1.25 thread specification before driving.
