Value Collection VT1295PS M3x0.5 Cheese Head Slotted Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION VT1295PS 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 M3x0.5 thread and a 20 mm length under head, conforming to DIN 84 and ISO 1207 fastener standards. The zinc coating provides basic corrosion resistance for general-purpose applications. This screw is sized for light-duty mechanical assemblies and is a standard metric fastener used across manufacturing, equipment maintenance, and general fabrication work. It is sold in a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per package.

This fastener is suited for metric threaded applications in light mechanical and electronic assemblies, panel mounting, and general equipment construction. The cheese head profile offers a larger bearing surface than a pan head while keeping a low, cylindrical top that clears closely spaced components. The slotted drive works with standard flat-blade screwdrivers, making it accessible in field and bench settings. Typical users include maintenance technicians, machine builders, and fabricators working with metric hardware specifications.

Key Features

• M3x0.5 metric thread for compatibility with standard metric tapped holes
• Cheese head profile per DIN 84 and ISO 1207 standards
• Slotted drive for use with flat-blade screwdrivers
• Grade 4.8 steel construction for light-duty tensile applications
• Zinc finish for basic corrosion protection
• Length under head: 20 mm with no washer face

Compatibility

Designed as a standard DIN 84 and ISO 1207 metric machine screw for use in any application requiring an M3x0.5 cheese head slotted fastener.

Installation Notes

Install using a flat-blade screwdriver sized to the slotted head to avoid cam-out and head damage. Ensure the mating tapped hole conforms to M3x0.5 metric thread specifications before installation. Do not exceed the torque capacity appropriate for Grade 4.8 steel at this screw diameter, and avoid using power drivers without torque control on small-diameter metric screws. De-energize any electrical assemblies before fastening near live components.
