Full spectrum of industrial fastening solutions | Covering both standard and custom parts
DIN 968 Stainless Steel Cross Recessed Pan Head Self Tapping Screws with Collar are screws designed for fastening thin metal sheets, plastic parts, panels, hardware components, and light-duty assemblies.
This product is a screw, not a bolt or nut. It has a cross recessed drive, round pan head, and an integrated collar/washer-style flange under the head, which helps increase the bearing surface and improve fastening stability.
The sharp tapping thread allows the screw to form its own mating thread during installation, reducing the need for pre-tapped holes in suitable materials.

Stainless steel provides good corrosion resistance and a clean metallic appearance, making the screw suitable for indoor and outdoor applications where better rust resistance is required.
The cross recessed head is easy to install with common screwdrivers or electric tools. It is suitable for efficient assembly and maintenance.
The collar under the head increases the contact area and helps distribute pressure more evenly on the fastening surface. This is useful when fastening thin sheets, panels, or plastic components.
The tapping thread helps the screw cut or form its own thread during installation. It is suitable for sheet metal, plastic, and other compatible materials.
Size, length, surface finish, packaging, and OEM requirements can be customized according to buyer drawings, samples, or project needs.
