Phillips Flat Head Countersunk Machine Screws — M1.4 to M5 | White Zinc, Nickel, Black Zinc

These Phillips flat head countersunk machine screws are designed to sit flush with or below the surface of the mating material when installed in a properly countersunk hole. The 90-degree conical head profile conforms to ISO metric standards, providing a clean, snag-free finish in panels, enclosures, brackets, and precision assemblies. Available in seven metric sizes from M1.4 to M5, with three coating options — white zinc, nickel, and black zinc — to suit different aesthetic and corrosion resistance requirements.

The small sizes (M1.4, M1.6, M2, M2.5) are widely used in electronics, laptops, cameras, and precision instruments. The larger sizes (M3, M4, M5) are suitable for general hardware, panel assembly, furniture, and structural applications. All sizes use ISO metric coarse pitch threads and require a pre-tapped hole, threaded insert, or nut — these are not self-tapping screws.

🔩 Compatibility: ISO metric coarse pitch — M1.4 (0.3mm) | M1.6 (0.35mm) | M2 (0.4mm) | M2.5 (0.45mm) | M3 (0.5mm) | M4 (0.7mm) | M5 (0.8mm). Phillips drive: M1.4/M1.6 = PH0 | M2/M2.5 = PH1 | M3/M4/M5 = PH2. Requires a pre-tapped hole or nut. Not self-tapping. Requires a countersunk hole for flush installation.

✅ Key Features of These Phillips Flat Head Countersunk Machine Screws

  • 🔵Flush Installation — 90° Countersunk Head Profile — The conical flat head sits flush with or below the surface when installed in a countersunk hole, providing a clean, snag-free finish. Conforms to ISO metric countersunk screw head angle standards.
  • 🔧Three Coating Options — White Zinc, Nickel, Black Zinc — White zinc provides standard corrosion resistance with a bright silver finish. Nickel plating offers a premium bright silver finish with good corrosion resistance for electronics and precision applications. Black zinc provides a dark matte/semi-gloss black finish for aesthetic applications.
  • 📐Seven Metric Sizes — M1.4 to M5 — Covers the full range from miniature electronics screws (M1.4, M1.6) through standard small hardware sizes (M2, M2.5, M3) to general hardware sizes (M4, M5). Multiple lengths available per size.
  • ⚙️Phillips Drive — PH0, PH1, PH2 Compatible — Standard Phillips cross recess drive compatible with PH0 (M1.4/M1.6), PH1 (M2/M2.5), and PH2 (M3/M4/M5) screwdrivers and power tool bits. Widely available driver sizes for easy assembly.
  • 📦Flexible Pack Quantities — 5 to 100 Pieces — Available in 5, 10, 20, 50, and 100-piece packs (availability varies by size and coating). Larger packs offer better per-unit value for production runs and bulk stocking.
  • 🛡️ISO Metric Coarse Thread — Standard Compatibility — Compatible with standard metric nuts, threaded inserts, and tapped holes. Consistent thread pitch across all sizes for reliable engagement and clamping force.

⚠️ Note: These are machine screws — they require a pre-tapped hole, threaded insert, or nut. They are not self-tapping. For a flush installation, the mating material must have a countersunk hole matching the 90° head angle. Use the correct Phillips driver size (PH0 for M1.4/M1.6, PH1 for M2/M2.5, PH2 for M3/M4/M5) to avoid cam-out and head damage.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

What is a countersunk (flat head) machine screw?

A countersunk machine screw has a conical head designed to sit flush with or below the surface of the mating material when installed in a countersunk hole. The head angle for ISO metric countersunk screws is 90 degrees. When installed correctly, the head is flush with the surface, providing a clean, snag-free finish. Used in electronics enclosures, panels, hinges, and structural assemblies where a flush surface is required.

What is the difference between white zinc, nickel, and black zinc coatings?

White zinc (clear zinc plating) provides standard corrosion resistance with a bright silver appearance — the most common coating for general-purpose steel fasteners. Nickel plating provides a bright silver finish with slightly better corrosion resistance, commonly used in electronics and precision instruments. Black zinc (black chromate over zinc) provides a dark matte or semi-gloss black finish for aesthetic applications in electronics, audio equipment, and consumer products.

What Phillips screwdriver size do I need?

M1.4 and M1.6: PH0 (Phillips #0). M2 and M2.5: PH1 (Phillips #1). M3, M4, and M5: PH2 (Phillips #2). Using the correct driver size reduces cam-out and head damage.

Do these screws require a countersunk hole?

Yes, for a flush installation. The mating material must have a countersunk (chamfered) hole matching the 90° head angle. Without countersinking, the head will protrude above the surface. Countersinking can be done with a countersink drill bit or a combined drill-and-countersink bit.

Are these screws self-tapping?

No. These are machine screws with a standard ISO metric coarse thread. They require a pre-tapped hole, threaded insert, or nut. They will not cut their own thread into material.

What are countersunk machine screws used for?

Countersunk machine screws are used where a flush or recessed head is required: electronics enclosures, PCB mounting brackets, panel assembly, hinges, furniture hardware, automotive interior trim, and any application where a protruding screw head would be a snag hazard or aesthetic issue. The small sizes (M1.4, M1.6, M2) are commonly used in electronics, cameras, laptops, and precision instruments.

What is the thread pitch for each size?

ISO metric coarse pitch: M1.4 (0.3mm) | M1.6 (0.35mm) | M2 (0.4mm) | M2.5 (0.45mm) | M3 (0.5mm) | M4 (0.7mm) | M5 (0.8mm). Compatible with standard metric nuts, threaded inserts, and tapped holes.
