❓ FAQs – A4 Stainless Steel Screw, Nut & Washer Set
🔸 What’s included in each set? Do I get nuts and washers with every screw?
Yes – each screw comes with one matching A4 stainless steel hex nut and one flat washer. For example, if you order 10 M5 screws, you’ll receive 10 screws + 10 nuts + 10 washers. Everything is matched by thread size.
🔸 What’s the difference between A4 (316) and A2 (304) stainless steel?
A4 (316) contains molybdenum, which dramatically improves resistance to saltwater, chlorides, and industrial chemicals. A2 (304) is fine for most indoor and general outdoor use, but A4 is the standard for marine, coastal, and chemical environments. This kit uses A4 – the best choice for harsh conditions.
🔸 How is screw length measured? Are these fully threaded?
Yes – all screws are fully threaded from just under the head to the tip. Length is measured from the underside of the head (the flat bearing surface) to the tip, not including the pan head. For example, an M5 x 20mm screw has a 20mm threaded shank.
🔸 Will A4 stainless steel rust in saltwater?
A4 (316) stainless is highly resistant to saltwater corrosion and is the go‑to choice for boat hardware, dock fittings, and submerged applications. While no metal is completely immune to crevice corrosion in stagnant, low‑oxygen conditions, 316 performs excellently for most marine use. Rinse occasionally with fresh water for maximum lifespan.
🔸 What Phillips screwdriver size works for M3 through M6?
M3: use PH1. M4: use PH1 or PH2. M5–M6: use PH2. Using the correct size prevents stripping and ensures even force.
🔸 Are these screws magnetic?
A4 stainless is generally non‑magnetic in its annealed state, but cold forming (like thread rolling) can make it slightly magnetic. A light magnetic response is normal and does not affect corrosion resistance.
