🔩 Product Overview: Brass Slotted Pan Head Machine Screws (M1–M3, DIN84)
If you're working on vintage electronics, musical instruments, or any project where a traditional slotted drive and a warm brass finish are preferred, these DIN84 brass pan head machine screws are exactly what you need. Available in tiny metric diameters from M1 up to M3 and lengths from 2mm to 10mm (measured under the head), they're perfect for delicate assemblies like camera repairs, clockmaking, model building, and antique restoration. The single slot (flathead screwdriver) drive allows for precise control and easy manual tightening, while the solid brass construction offers natural corrosion resistance, good electrical conductivity, and a classic golden appearance that looks great on visible hardware. Made to DIN84/GB65 standards, these fully threaded screws are a reliable choice for any application where small size and traditional aesthetics matter.
✨ Why Choose Brass Slotted Pan Head Screws for Precision Work
-
Solid brass construction – Naturally corrosion‑resistant, non‑magnetic, and electrically conductive. Develops a beautiful patina over time. No plating to chip or wear off.
-
Slotted (flathead) drive – Classic single‑slot design allows for easy manual tightening with a standard flathead screwdriver. Ideal for applications where you need precise torque control and frequent disassembly.
-
Pan head (cylindrical head) – Low‑profile rounded head with a flat bearing surface. Provides a clean, finished look and distributes clamping force evenly.
-
Metric micro sizes: M1, M1.2, M1.4, M1.6, M2, M2.5, M3 – Covers the smallest diameters used in electronics, watches, eyewear, and precision instruments.
-
Lengths from 2mm to 10mm (under head) – Extremely short screws for thin panels and delicate assemblies. Choose exactly what your project needs.
-
DIN84 / GB65 standard – Precision dimensions with tight tolerances (±0.2mm). Head diameters from 2mm to 5.5mm, head thickness from 0.7mm to 2mm, slot widths 0.3–0.90mm, slot depths 0.3–0.85mm.
-
Fully threaded, natural finish – No surface treatment, so you get the pure brass look and properties. Threads run the entire shank length.
-
Wide application range – Machinery manufacturing, electronic equipment, automotive and aerospace, construction, shipbuilding, medical devices, piping systems, musical instruments, furniture, and daily necessities.

❓ FAQs – Brass Slotted Pan Head Screws (M1–M3)
🔸 What screwdriver should I use for these slotted screws?
Use a precision flathead (slotted) screwdriver that matches the slot width. For M1–M2 sizes, a 1.0mm–1.5mm blade works well. For M2.5–M3, a 2.0mm–2.5mm blade. Avoid using a driver that is too wide or too narrow – it will damage the slot.
🔸 Are these screws fully threaded? How is length measured?
Yes – they are fully threaded from 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 head. For example, an M2 x 6mm screw has a 6mm threaded shank below the pan head.
🔸 Will brass screws corrode or tarnish over time?
Brass naturally develops a darker patina or slight greenish tint (verdigris) over time, especially in humid or salty environments. This is a surface change that does not affect structural integrity. For indoor use, they'll stay golden for years. If you prefer to maintain the bright finish, apply a clear lacquer or polish occasionally.
🔸 Are these screws electrically conductive?
Yes – brass is a good electrical conductor. These screws can be used for grounding connections, terminal blocks, and other low‑ to medium‑current applications. For high‑current needs, pure copper would be better, but brass is often sufficient.
🔸 Can I use these screws with nuts, or are they self‑tapping?
These are machine screws – they require a matching metric nut or a pre‑tapped hole. They are not self‑tapping. For best results, pair them with brass or stainless steel nuts of the same thread size.
🔸 What is the tolerance on these screws?
The tolerance range is ±0.2mm for dimensions like thread diameter, length, head diameter, etc. This is standard for precision micro fasteners and ensures consistent fit across batches.
