Pan Head Machine Screw features a domed head with a flat bearing surface and high cylindrical sides. The head is slightly rounded at the top, giving it a smooth appearance. These screws are commonly used in applications where a wider clamping area and a lower profile than standard hex head cap screws are needed. They can be driven with a Phillips or slotted screwdriver, depending on the design of the recess. Pan head machine screws are available in various materials, including steel, stainless steel, and brass, to suit different environmental and load requirements.
Pan Head Machine Screw applications include a wide range of industries and uses, such as electronics, appliances, automotive, machinery, and general construction. They are often used in the assembly of small parts, securing components in tight spaces, or where a smooth, low-profile head is preferred. These screws are ideal for attaching metal panels, assembling plastic housings, and in any situation requiring a clean, finished appearance. Additionally, they are commonly found in consumer products, like furniture, toys, and lighting fixtures, due to their aesthetic appeal and functional design.
