Product Information

It is identical to a flat head, except for its rounded surface. Countersunk screw head that includes a decorative rounded finish at the top. Often used for switch coverings. Oval Trim A pan screw is a machine screw with sides that are rounded and flat tops. They are similar to overhead machine screws, but the difference is that with oval screws, the top is rounded as well. Oval screws also have tapered bases, as opposed to the pan screws, which are not tapered at all.

Often confused with a hex bolt, but they’re not the same. A hex bolt uses a nut, while a hex head cap screw is installed in a tapped hole. Available with or without a slotted hex. The six sides of a hex head screw allow greater torque than other screws. Unlike screws with a circular head that are internally driven, a hex head screw is installed with the force working against the outside of the head. Round head screw Often, short binding screws can hold together large manuals and other bookbinding projects, but you can also use them to hold together swatches, leather, and more. 5. Domed Heads Bugle heads are used mainly on screws made for plasterboard and drywall. This shape is much like a flat screw head, except that, instead of an angle underneath the surface of the head, you’ll see a curved shape that can reduce damage to a surface. You can find truss head screws with different head recesses. Phillips is probably the most common head recess used for truss head screws. It features four points in a cross-like shape. Other truss heads have a slotted or hex recess. In ConclusionA binding undercut machine screw has a rounded top surface with slightly tapered sides. The bearing surface is flat and the slotted type has an annular undercut adjacent to the shank. The binding head style is the preferred design for making a firm electrical connection. Button Sometimes features are combined, as in the case of slotted hex, hex washer, slotted hex washer, and round washer head designs. Truss headed screws also go under the names of Oven head, or Stove head Has a low, large diameter rounded top with a flat bearing surface. Weaker than Pan heads or round heads but preferred in applications where minimal clearance exists above the head. Truss profile provides a trim finished appearance and can be used to cover large clearance holes in sheet metal The ‘oval trim’ head is the same as the regular ‘oval’ head, but with a smaller diameter and countersink. Round Another benefit of truss head screws is better load distribution. All truss head screws have a wide head. Along with a round shape, this is one of their defining characteristics. When installed, the wide head will distribute the load while subsequently protecting the part or parts from damage.

A dome head screw with a deep slot, these are special types of screw heads. Also called binding head screws, they typically have a 10% larger bearing surface than pan head screws. Flat – slotted head screw Binding screws are also used for other kinds of projects; they are often used to hold together large manuals, for bookbinding, and in leather products. Trim Bugle screws are self-drilling, so you won’t need to drill any pilot holes before using them, and their unique shape allows them to distribute stress over a wider surface than flat screws. 4. Binding Heads They are used where high strength and a smooth profile is required particularly in the furniture industry. They are associated with parallel threads but can be provided on taper threads Designed specifically for use in drywall (plasterboard) installation because the screw distributes bearing stress over a wider area than flat heads.The best place to start is with the head, which is designed according to the screw’s function. You’ll come across different screw-head shapes but essentially, heads fall into two categories: countersunk and non-countersunk. A countersunk head screw sits flush with the surface where it’s installed, or slightly below it. Countersunk screws are designed to taper so that they can self tap into the material you’re fastening. An example of this is a flat screw head.
