Cross pan head with cushion self-tapping nails flat tail cutting are a specialized type of self-tapping screw that combines the benefits of a pan head design with a cushion point and a flat tail cutting feature. These screws are designed for applications where a secure grip and a flush finish are required.
Carbon Steel: Typically used for general applications.
Stainless Steel: For environments where corrosion resistance is required.
Alloy Steels: Used in applications requiring high strength or high temperature resistance.
Advantage:
Pan Head Design: The pan head provides a large bearing surface, which helps prevent the material from sinking or damaging, especially in softer materials. It also offers a professional and finished look when installed.
Cushion Point: The cushion point distributes the load over an even larger area, reducing the risk of material deformation and providing a secure grip.
Self-Tapping Capability: These screws can create their own threads in a predrilled hole, eliminating the need for pre-tapping, which saves time and effort.
Flat Tail Cutting: The flat tail cutting feature allows the screw to cut through materials for a secure grip, making it suitable for use in a variety of materials, including metals, plastics, and composites.
Scope of Application
Automotive Industry: Used for assembling interior trim panels, components, and body panels where the ability to form threads in plastics or sheet metals is beneficial.
Construction and HVAC: Ideal for fastening metal roofing, wall paneling, and ductwork where a strong connection without pre-drilling is required.
Electrical and Electronics: Secures components in electrical enclosures and control panels, as well as in the assembly of electronic devices.
Furniture and Cabinetry: Assembles wooden or composite materials in furniture and cabinetry, providing a secure and durable connection.
Plumbing and Electrical Work: Used to secure piping or to mount electrical boxes, where their ease of installation and strong hold are crucial.
