Stainless Steel DIN 968 Cross Recessed Pan Head Tapping Screws with Collar ST4.2x16measurement system

Product Description

What Is This Product?

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.

Product Specification

Key Features

1. Stainless Steel Material

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.

2. Cross Recessed Drive

The cross recessed head is easy to install with common screwdrivers or electric tools. It is suitable for efficient assembly and maintenance.

3. Pan Head with Collar

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.

4. Self Tapping Thread

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.
