Understanding Machine Screws

Machine screws, also known as precision fasteners, are manufactured to strict DIN and ISO standards. They feature a uniform diameter along the thread’s full length and a flat point, commonly using metric threads with a standard metric coarse pitch. These screws can be either screwed into a pre-tapped hole and tightened with a driver or inserted through a pre-drilled hole and secured with a nut and washer.

Material Choices and their Applications

Our machine screws are available in a variety of materials, each offering specific benefits for different uses and environments:

  • A2 & A4 Stainless Steel: Ideal for outdoor and harsh environments due to their corrosion resistance.
  • Zinc Plated and Black Zinc Plated: Suitable for indoor use, often utilized in electronics and general applications.

Common Sizes and Head Types

Machine screws come in a range of sizes and head types to suit various needs:

  • Sizes: Most commonly used sizes range from M1.6 to M6, with lengths between 3mm and 100mm. As the thread diameter increases, longer lengths become available.
  • Head Types:
    • Flat head countersunk
    • Raised countersunk
    • Pan head
    • Cheese head

Drive Types

The main types of drives for machine screws include:

  • Pozi drive
  • Phillips drive
  • Slotted drive
  • Torx/Star drive

Selecting the Right Machine Screw

When choosing the appropriate machine screw, consider the following factors:

  • Material: Select a material suitable for the environmental conditions and strength requirements.
  • Drive Type: Consider the required torque and installation conditions.
  • Head Type: Decide if the head should be flush with the material or if a raised head is acceptable.
  • Size: Ensure the correct thread diameter and length for the intended use. For smaller sizes, use digital calipers to get an accurate measurement of the thread diameter.
