Self-Tapping Pan Head Screw M1.4–M6 | Black-Zinc Carbon Steel & 304 A2-70 Stainless Steel | 50PCS

Self-Tapping Pan Head Screw M1.4–M6 — Black-Zinc Carbon Steel & 304 A2-70 Stainless Steel

A comprehensive range of Phillips cross pan round head self-tapping screws covering M1.4 to M6 in both black-zinc carbon steel and 304 A2-70 stainless steel. Self-tapping screws cut their own thread as they are driven, eliminating the need for pre-tapping in wood, plastic, and thin sheet metal — making them the fastest and most versatile fastener for electronics enclosures, woodworking, model making, and general assembly. The pan (round) head provides a wide bearing surface that distributes clamping load without countersinking, ideal for thin panels and PCB mounting.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Do I need to pre-drill a pilot hole?
A: For wood and soft plastics, a pilot hole slightly smaller than the screw diameter is recommended to prevent splitting, especially near edges. For thin sheet metal, a pilot hole equal to the minor thread diameter is required.

Q: What is the difference between black-zinc and black oxide finish?
A: Black-zinc (zinc plated then black chromate treated) provides better corrosion resistance than black oxide. Black oxide is a thin conversion coating with minimal corrosion protection. These screws use black-zinc plating for improved durability.
