Technical Specifications
Head Design: Flat head machine screws have a countersunk head with a typical angle of 82 degrees or 90 degrees, allowing them to sit flush with the surface.
Sizes: Available in a range of sizes, including common metric sizes like M3, M4, M5, M6, M8, and M10, as well as fractional sizes like 1/4 inch.
Lengths: The length of the screw is measured from the top of the head to the tip, ensuring a flush fit when countersunk
