Pan Phillips Screws
What is Pan Phillips Screws?
Pan Phillips screws are machine screws characterized by their rounded, slightly domed head and a cross-shaped (Phillips) drive. The pan head provides a clean, finished look and a broad bearing surface, making it ideal for applications requiring a neat and flush assembly without countersinking. Their Phillips drive design allows for better torque control and reduces the risk of cam-out during installation.
Pan Phillips screws are widely used in electronics, automotive parts, household appliances, and sheet metal assemblies due to their aesthetic appearance and reliable fastening.

Do you have questions?
What is a Pan Phillips screw used for?
Pan Phillips screws are commonly used where a low-profile, finished appearance is desired along with reliable fastening for metal, plastic, or wood parts.
Is the Phillips drive better than a slotted one?
Yes, Phillips drives offer improved torque handling, reduce driver slippage, and allow faster installation compared to slotted drives.
Are Pan Phillips screws rust-proof?
Stainless steel and coated variants of Pan Phillips screws offer excellent corrosion resistance, making them suitable for outdoor or humid environments.
Can I get custom sizes or packaging?
Yes, we offer custom sizes, materials, head types, and packaging options tailored to your project needs.
