StarTech.com M5 x 12mm - Mounting Screws - 100 Pack, Black

Product Overview

AI-generated summary

StarTech’s M5 x 12mm mounting screws (100 pack) are the kind of boring but genuinely useful item you’ll be glad you stocked once you’re actually faced with a rack/cabinet job. £29.87 ex‑VAT for a full centric 100-pack isn’t outrageous in B2B terms—mainly because these “small” consumables can stall a whole install when you don’t have the right thread/length to hand. If you work in comms/IT installs, patching rooms, or any data-centre-adjacent work, having the correct M5 length lets you keep momentum and avoid bodging with the wrong hardware.

That said, I wouldn’t buy these casually unless you’ve confirmed the equipment you’re mounting into is truly expecting M5 and specifically needs 12mm travel. Screws are where people often get burned—either the length is off (doesn’t bite properly or hits something inside) or the thread standard is wrong—so if you’re not certain, check the enclosure/rack manual before committing. For everyday “spares bucket” use, though, they’re a sensible purchase, and the black finish is a nice touch if you care about a cleaner look in visible areas.
