❓ Frequently Asked Questions – M2 M4 M5 Pan Head Stainless Screws
1. How do I measure the length of a pan head screw?
For pan head screws, length is measured from the underside of the head (the flat bearing surface) to the tip. The head itself is NOT included. So an “M4 x 10mm” screw has a 10mm long threaded shaft under the head. All our lengths follow this standard.
2. Are these screws fully threaded? What about longer lengths like 50mm?
Yes – all M2, M4, and M5 screws in this range (up to the maximum length) are fully threaded from under the head to the tip, giving you maximum grip in blind holes or when using nuts.
3. Can I use these screws outdoors? Will they rust?
A2 stainless steel (304) is highly corrosion‑resistant and suitable for outdoor use in most environments – rain, humidity, and coastal areas. For continuous saltwater immersion, consider A4 (316) stainless, but for furniture, garden equipment, and general outdoor hardware, 304 is excellent and will not rust.
4. What Phillips screwdriver size do I need for M2, M4, and M5?
For M2, use a #000 or #00 Phillips. For M4, a #1 or #2 works well. For M5, a #2 Phillips is best. Always use a driver that fits snugly to avoid cam‑out and head damage.
5. Can I use these screws with a nut? What size nut fits?
Yes – these are machine screws. Use standard metric nuts of the same thread size (M2, M4, or M5). They will also thread into pre‑tapped holes. Not self‑tapping – for wood or plastic, use a threaded insert or nut on the back.
6. Do you offer other sizes like M3 or M6?
This listing covers M2, M4, M5. We also carry M3, M6, and other sizes in our store – please check our other listings or contact us.
