Product Description

The steel machine screw has a zinc plated finish and a flat head with a Phillips drive. Steel is often used in applications where strength is the primary consideration. The zinc plating offers corrosion resistance and a reflective appearance. The Phillips drive has an x-shaped slot that accepts a Phillips driver and is designed to allow the driver to slip out of the head to help prevent over-tightening and damage to the thread or fastener. The flat head is cone shaped for use in countersunk holes and has a flat top that fits flush with the mated surface.

Machine screws are threaded fasteners that are typically used with nuts or drilled and tapped (threaded) holes. Machine screws are available with a variety of head shapes, which determine how the screw interacts with the mating surface, and drive styles, which determine the type of driver required to install and remove the screw.

    Comes in a small bag and you almost don't think there are a hundred in there because they are so small. I've used about 40 of them so far and have had no problems. Way cheaper than buying them from the hardware store where they are packaged 10 to a bag for over $1.

    What more can you really say. They are screws. They work. They don't strip out. I'm using them to secure electrical box extensions on boxes that were set too deep.

    What can you say about the bolts themselves? They're exactly what they should be. The nice thing, though, is that they were available from a comprehensive selection, at a very reasonable price, and arrived in just two days. I wasted time checking the three "big box" stores in my area, but none stocked this size bolt with a phillips head. Of course, if they had them, they would have been in a small pack of 6 or 8, which means I'd have paid more for the 36 I needed than Amazon charged me for 100. Amazon/Small Parts comes through yet again.

    I needed screws for an xotic effects pedal so I contacted Xotic for replacement screws. Their quick response was tge screws were a 6/32 1/4". That was incorrect. Turns out thread size was correct but the length was half inch. All is not lost as the screws are the perfect replacement for my Sears Washer lid. Now I have an abundance of replacement screws. I'm sure I will find additional uses.
