A small product with a big impact! Pan-head screws – a versatile choice of fastening element

Pan-head screws feature a flat head whose design allows it to rest evenly against the workpiece. This makes it a very discreet-looking type of screw – one that is also gentle on materials and provides a safe option that reduces the risk of injuries and damage.

Pan-head screws are used in a whole host of sectors, including:

• Metalworking and wood processing
• Battery technology
  
• Mechanical and plant engineering
• Electromobility
  
• Fuel cell technology
  
• Electrical installation
• and many more besides

What does the surface designation “blue A2K zinc plating, 5 µm” mean?

• “Blue zinc plating”: This means that the screws are covered with a layer of zinc. The main purpose of this coating is to protect against corrosion, as zinc prevents rust from forming on the surfaces of screws.
• A2K: A is a designation used for zinc surfaces, while the number 2 refers to the thickness of the zinc layer (5 µm in this case). K means that the surface has a bluish iridescent color.
• 5 µm: This refers to the thickness of the zinc layer and is measured in micrometers. A layer that is 5 µm thick provides good protection against corrosion.

The combination of all these factors results in a strong product with basic protection against corrosion.
