🔩 Product Overview: M1–M1.6 Round Pan Head Phillips Screws – Nickel Plated Carbon Steel
If you repair watches, eyeglasses, cameras, or any miniature device, you know how hard it is to find tiny screws that fit correctly and don't rust. These M1, M1.2, M1.4, and M1.6 round pan head Phillips machine screws are made from carbon steel with a bright nickel plating – giving you strength, corrosion resistance, and a clean silver finish. The rounded head sits flush on small panels, and the Phillips drive works with precision #000 or #00 bits. Fully threaded with standard coarse metric pitch, they’re perfect for electronics, jewelry boxes, model making, and instrument repair. Available in lengths from 2mm to 10mm (measured under the head). From Goobetter – tiny fasteners with big reliability.
✨ Why These Micro Nickel Plated Phillips Screws Are a Precision Repair Essential
-
Micro metric sizes: M1, M1.2, M1.4, M1.6 – The hard‑to‑find diameters for eyeglass hinges, watch bands, camera parts, drone motors, and smartphone repairs.
-
Nickel plated carbon steel – Bright, corrosion‑resistant finish. Protects against rust and gives a clean, professional silver appearance.
-
Round pan head (low profile) – Rounded top with a flat bearing surface. Sits flush on panels without protruding – great for compact assemblies.
-
Phillips drive – Works with precision #000 or #00 Phillips screwdrivers. Easy to drive with common micro tools.
-
Fully threaded, standard metric coarse pitch – M1x0.25, M1.2x0.25, M1.4x0.3, M1.6x0.35. Threads run the entire shank length.
-
Lengths from 2mm to 10mm (under head) – Extremely short screws for thin panels and delicate assemblies. Choose exactly what your project needs.
-
Brand: Goobetter, made in China – Consistent quality and thread accuracy. Pack quantity according to your selection.

❓ FAQs – Micro Nickel Plated Phillips Screws (M1–M1.6)
🔸 What devices commonly use M1–M1.6 screws?
These ultra‑tiny screws are found in eyeglass hinge screws, watch band link pins, camera lens mounts, drone motor mounts, smartphone internal brackets, model train parts, and miniature instrument repair. If a device uses a screw that looks like a tiny silver Phillips head, it’s likely one of these.
🔸 What screwdriver size works for these tiny screws?
You’ll need a precision Phillips #000 or #00 (PH000 or PH00). A jeweler’s screwdriver set with interchangeable bits is essential. For M1 and M1.2, a PH000 is safest. For M1.4 and M1.6, a PH00 often works. Never force a larger bit – you’ll strip the recess instantly.
🔸 Are these screws fully threaded? How is length measured?
Yes – they 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 round head. For example, an M1.4 x 4mm screw has a 4mm threaded shank below the head.
🔸 Will nickel plating rust or wear off?
Nickel plating provides good corrosion resistance for indoor use (electronics, watches, instruments). With repeated driving, the recess may show some wear, but the finish holds up well for normal use. For constant moisture or outdoor use, stainless steel would be better. These are ideal for dry, indoor precision applications.
🔸 Can I use these screws with nuts, or are they self‑tapping?
These are machine screws – they require a matching metric nut (M1, M1.2, etc.) or a pre‑tapped hole. They are not self‑tapping. For tiny sizes, nuts may be hard to find; these are often used directly into threaded plastic or metal inserts.
🔸 Are these screws magnetic?
Yes – carbon steel is magnetic. For most micro applications (eyeglasses, watches, non‑magnetic sensors), this is fine. If you need non‑magnetic for sensitive electronics, consider brass.
