Precision Manufacturing, Batch After Batch
From cold-heading raw steel wire to heat-treated finished bolts, every step runs under strict in-house process control — ensuring the dimensional accuracy and strength grade printed on every head marking.
Product Overview
Application Scenarios
Cross-recess pan head machine screws (DIN 7985 / ISO 7045) have a low, rounded pan head driven by a Phillips cross recess, on a fully threaded machine-screw shank. They are among the most widely used general-purpose screws — driven into tapped holes, nuts or captive threads in electrical switchgear and control panels, appliances, electronics, sheet-metal enclosures, signage and light assemblies. The broad pan head gives a large bearing surface; stainless versions suit visible, damp, outdoor and food-contact applications.
Installation Notes
Drive with a correctly sized Phillips bit — the recess number rises with screw size (PH1 for M3, PH2 for M4–M5, PH3 for M6, PH4 for M8), and the wrong bit cams out and chews up the cross recess. These are machine screws: run them into a tapped hole, nut or captive thread rather than plain material, and keep thread engagement at least equal to the thread diameter. They are normally grade 4.8 or 8.8, so do not treat them as high-strength screws; a spring or serrated washer, or a thread-locker, resists loosening under vibration.
Material & Certification
Manufactured from austenitic stainless steel — A2 (AISI 304) or A4 (AISI 316) — to ISO 3506-1 and produced to DIN 7985 / ISO 7045, with every batch traceable to raw material certificates. Each production run passes 100% dimensional and cross-recess gauge inspection before packaging; EN 10204 3.1 material certificates are available on request.
