Good value for money
Bought a box of M4 sizes for assembling computer cases. They work well, though the heads can strip if you use too much torque with a manual driver.

Consistent quality
I've ordered these three times now. Every batch has been consistent in size and thread quality. Highly recommended for DIY electronics enclosures.

Solid hardware
Great screws for general purpose use. The zinc coating seems durable enough for indoor applications. Just wish they came in larger quantities.

Sharp and effective
The self-tapping point is very sharp. I didn't need to pre-drill holes in thin aluminum sheets, which saved me a lot of time.

Exactly as described
Fit the GB846 standard perfectly. Used them for repairing a small appliance and they held tight. No complaints at all.
Q: Do I need to pre-drill holes for M6 size in hardwood?
A: For hardwoods, it is generally advisable to pre-drill a pilot hole even with self-tapping screws to prevent splitting the wood and to ensure easier driving.
Q: What screwdriver bit size fits the M4 Phillips head?
A: Typically, a PH2 bit is suitable for M4 and larger sizes in this series, while M2 and M2.5 may require a PH1 bit.
Q: Is the black coating prone to chipping?
A: The black zinc finish is durable under normal installation conditions. However, excessive force or using the wrong driver type can cause minor chipping on the head.
Q: Are these screws suitable for outdoor use?
A: While the black zinc plating offers some corrosion resistance, these screws are primarily designed for indoor applications. For outdoor use, we recommend stainless steel variants.
Q: Can these be used to attach plastic components to metal frames?
A: Yes, these self-tapping screws are excellent for fastening plastic to metal, provided the plastic is thick enough to hold the threads securely.
