The record covers cap screw M5 x 0.8 with 8 mm hex head.
Head and drive, as the source states them: socket cap head.
This entry is marked confirmed and comes from partstown.ca.
For reference, M5 is 5 mm across the threads at 0.8 mm pitch. The imperial size people confuse it with: #10-32 (4.83 mm) — the other common rack thread; check before mixing.

How to check the screw before you buy
- Unplug the appliance and discharge any capacitors before removing covers.
- Diameter: across the threads an M5 screw measures about 5 mm with calipers (usually a hair under). If yours measures noticeably more or less, it is a different thread.
- Pitch: 0.8 mm from one thread crest to the next (12.5 crests per centimetre). A thread pitch gauge or the pitch-gauge tool settles it in seconds.
- Length: for socket cap screws, measure from under the head to the tip (countersunk heads are the exception: they are measured overall).
- Driver: the source does not name the drive. Standard M5 heads take PH2 for Phillips and T25 for Torx, and a 4 mm hex key for socket heads; a bit that fits loosely will cam out and strip the head.
- Tightening: no device-specific torque is published in these records. The site's general figure for M5 is about 4.0-6.0 N·m into metal threads and 1.5-2.5 N·m into plastic bosses; snug it up and stop.
Common mix-ups with M5
- Commercial washer-extractor cabinets mix DIN 933 (hex head, full thread) and DIN 84A (slotted pan/cheese head) M5 screws for different panels on the same machine line, so a single family/brand isn't consistent across all fasteners.
- Some scooters and appliances use self-tapping screws of similar diameter rather than true M5 machine threads.
