Stainless Steel 304 Self Tapping Screws Phillips Pan Head Metric M3 M4 Fine Thread Class 8.8 For Electronics Enclosure
Self tapping screws are pretty simple. You drive them into a hole and they cut their own thread as they go. No need to tap the hole first. That saves time on the assembly line.
How They Work
The tip is sharp and has cutting edges. As you turn the screw, it digs in and forms its own thread. You still need a pilot hole, but that is it. No extra step.
Head Styles
Thread Types
Fine thread screws grip better in thin metal and hard plastic. More threads per inch means harder to pull out.
Coarse thread screws are for softer stuff like wood and plastic. They bite in faster.
Materials
Stainless steel resists rust. Good for outdoor use or wet areas.
Brass looks good and does not rust. Also non magnetic. Works well for electronics and fixtures where appearance matters.
Galvanized screws have a zinc coating. Decent rust protection for outdoors without spending too much.
Black oxide gives you a matte black finish. Mainly for indoor use. Cuts down on glare.
Aluminium screws are light and non magnetic.
