Technical Usage
These screws are widely used in woodworking, furniture assembly, and metal-to-metal or metal-to-wood fastening. Their self-tapping design allows them to create threads in softer materials like wood, plastic, or thin metal, eliminating the need for pre-drilling. The countersunk head ensures the screw sits flush with the material surface, making it suitable for aesthetic finishes and structural integrity in projects exposed to the elements.

History
Flat and countersunk head screws have been utilized for centuries to provide a smooth finish in woodworking and metalworking. With the addition of self-tapping technology, these screws became more versatile, enabling efficient and secure fastening without pre-drilling. The integration of galvanized iron enhanced their durability and corrosion resistance, adapting them to meet the demands of modern construction and design.
