Stainless Steel Washer Screw Round Washer Head Phillips Self Tapping Fasteners

Stainless steel washer screw combines the advantages of the pan head but has a washer built into the head to increase head diameter and prevent over driving in softwoods while providing a maximum bearing surface. These fasteners have Square-Phillips combo recess drive designed to offer the dependability of a square drive recess with the convenience and after-market serviceability of a Phillips drive. In addition, they have coarse thread design for superior holding power while reducing splitting or crumbling of the material, allowing the fastener to install rapidly with full thread engagement after just one revolution. The threaded surface is nearly perpendicular to the screw axis, providing great resistance to pullout. Ever Hardware provides custom-made fasteners and customizable packaging.

The Phillips screw drive was created by John P. Thompson, who after failing to interest manufacturers, sold his design to businessman Henry F. Phillips. Phillips is credited with forming a company (Phillips Screw Company), improving the design, and promoting the adoption of his product. Phillips drive bits are often designated by the letters “PH”, plus a size code 0000, 000, 00, 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4 (by order of increasing size); the numerical bit size codes do not necessarily correspond to nominal screw size numbers.

Stainless steel does not readily corrode, rust or stain with water as ordinary steel does. However, it is not fully stain-proof in low-oxygen, high salinity, or poor air-circulation environments. There are different grades and surface finishes of stainless steel to suit the environment the alloy must endure. Stainless steel is used where both the properties of steel and corrosion resistance are required.
