Screw Core Classifications:
Machine Screws: Standard threads for pre-threaded holes, fully/partially threaded, ideal for precision.
Self-Tapping Screws: Drill, tap, and push without pre-drilled holes. Subcategories include:
Ordinary Self-Tapping Screws: Used for plastics, wood, thin metal.
Self-Drilling Self-Tapping Screws: Drill tip penetrates steel, eliminating pre-drilling, boosting efficiency.
Wood Screws: Deep threads, sharp teeth for wood, ensuring strong lock.
Set Screws: Fix parts, preventing slippage/rotation. Various end shapes:
Tapered End: High locking force, ideal for hard surfaces.
Flat End: Large contact area, non-damaging.
Concave/Cylindrical End: For positioning or pressing into shaft holes.
Structural screws: High-strength, heat-treated, replace bolts in steel structures, speeding installation.
