What is a pan head machine screw?

A pan head machine screw is a type of threaded fastener with a wide, rounded head and a flat underside, designed for use with a pre-tapped hole or a corresponding nut. Unlike self-tapping screws, machine screws do not cut their own thread; they are used in assemblies where a precise, existing thread is already present.

The pan head offers a neat finish and distributes load evenly, making it ideal for applications where the screw sits on the surface of the material. These screws are commonly used in metalworking, electrical enclosures, appliances, and machinery where secure, reliable fastening is required.
