Pan Head Slotted Machine Screws Clear Zinc Cr3 Plating
Pan Head Slotted Machine Screws with Clear Zinc Cr3 Plating
Pan head slotted machine screws with Clear Zinc Cr3 plating are a dependable fastening solution for industrial, commercial, and general-purpose applications. Engineered for strength, corrosion resistance, and clean visual appeal, these machine screws are ideal for assemblies where reliability and classic installation methods are preferred. From electrical enclosures and HVAC systems to automotive trim and light machinery, they deliver consistent clamping performance across a wide range of materials.
Key Features and Benefits
Pan Head Design for Superior Load Distribution
The pan head features a smooth, slightly domed profile with a broad bearing surface. This design evenly distributes clamping force, reducing the risk of surface damage to metal, plastic, or composite materials. Its rounded appearance provides a professional, finished look in visible installations such as panels, covers, brackets, and control boxes. The larger head surface also improves holding power in thin materials.
Slotted Drive for Simple, Traditional Installation
The slotted drive system allows installation using a standard flathead screwdriver, making these screws a practical choice for maintenance, repair, and field service applications. Slotted screws remain popular in industries where manual assembly is common or where a traditional fastening style is specified. The straightforward drive design also simplifies removal and adjustment when servicing equipment.
Clear Zinc Cr3 Plating for Corrosion Protection
Clear Zinc Cr3 (trivalent chromium) plating provides moderate corrosion resistance while maintaining a bright, clean finish. This RoHS-compliant coating protects against rust and oxidation in indoor and light outdoor environments. The smooth plated surface also enhances thread engagement and reduces installation friction.
Sizes and Application Flexibility
Available in fractional diameters such as #4, #6, #8, #10, and 1/4", with lengths ranging from 1/4" to 3", these screws are offered in UNC (coarse) and UNF (fine) thread options.
For dependable strength, classic drive functionality, and corrosion-resistant performance, pan head slotted machine screws with Clear Zinc Cr3 plating are a versatile and cost-effective fastening choice.
