Value Collection P74212PS M2x0.4 Cheese Head Slotted Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION P74212PS is a metric machine screw with a cheese head and slotted drive, manufactured from Grade 4.8 steel with a zinc finish. It features an M2x0.4 thread and a 12 mm length under the head, conforming to DIN 84 and ISO 1207 standards. This fastener is used in precision assembly, light mechanical equipment, and electronics enclosures where a low-profile cylindrical head and slotted drive are required. Installation is performed by maintenance technicians, assemblers, and tradespeople working with metric fastener systems.

This screw is suited for applications requiring a compact, metric fastener in steel construction with corrosion-resistant zinc plating. Typical uses include panel assembly, instrument housings, small machinery components, and general-purpose metric fastening where DIN 84 or ISO 1207 compliance is specified. The cheese head profile sits flush to slightly raised on the mating surface, providing a clean clamping face without a washer. Sold in multiples of 100 units per order.

Key Features

• M2x0.4 thread size for precise metric fastening applications
• Cheese head profile per DIN 84 and ISO 1207 standards
• Slotted drive for use with standard flat-blade screwdrivers
• Grade 4.8 steel construction for reliable tensile strength in light-duty assemblies
• Zinc finish provides corrosion resistance in indoor and light-duty environments
• No washer — length measured under the head per standard convention

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style metric fastener replacement conforming to DIN 84 and ISO 1207 specifications, suitable for any application requiring an M2x0.4 cheese head slotted machine screw in Grade 4.8 steel.

Installation Notes

Install using a flat-blade screwdriver sized to the slotted head to avoid cam-out and head damage. Ensure the mating thread is clean and free of debris before driving. Do not overtorque — Grade 4.8 fasteners at M2 diameter have low torque thresholds and are susceptible to thread stripping. Always verify thread pitch compatibility with the receiving material before installation.
