This widely used metric self-tapping fastener is designed for sheet metal and plastic assembly, known as DIN7981 Phillips Pan Head Self Tapping Screw. It features a smooth rounded pan head with standard Phillips cross recess for easy screwdriver engagement. The sharp self-tapping tip can cut matching internal threads directly into pre-drilled workpieces without pre-tapped holes. We supply multiple material grades and surface treatments to meet different corrosion and aesthetic requirements for indoor light-duty connection projects, and we maintain consistent thread geometry for reliable assembly.
For daily assembly operations, DIN7981 Phillips Pan Head Self Tapping Screw delivers stable and reliable performance.
- Round pan head leaves no sharp exposed edges after full tightening, protecting operators and surrounding components from scratches during usage, and it can sit flush against the workpiece surface neatly without protruding sharp corners.
- Standard Phillips cross recess transfers torque evenly and effectively, greatly reducing the risk of screwdriver bit slipping and workpiece damage during installation, which helps improve assembly efficiency on manual and automated production lines.
- Full metric size range covers M2.2 up to M6, most common specifications are kept in stock to support quick sample delivery and bulk order shipment for global buyers across many industrial sectors.

Proper pilot hole size directly affects tapping effect and connection strength. Too small holes will cause screw breakage while oversized holes lead to loose connection and poor holding force. We can offer recommended hole dimension sheet for reference once you confirm your workpiece material and thickness. We also suggest controlling the tightening torque properly to avoid thread stripping or cracking on plastic substrates.
Manufactured strictly according to DIN 7981 official specification, DIN7981 Phillips Pan Head Self Tapping Screw adopts Phillips cross recess and pan head self-tapping thread design, and all dimensions, thread profile and geometric tolerances fully comply with DIN standard requirements. Every batch is produced with consistent thread profile to guarantee smooth tapping and uniform clamping force.
Before leaving our factory, DIN7981 Phillips Pan Head Self Tapping Screw will pass a complete set of inspection procedures.
- Raw material incoming inspection includes chemical composition analysis and mechanical property test to guarantee the base material meets the standard, unqualified raw materials will be rejected before production.
- Finished products will undergo tapping performance test and manual visual screening, defective items with burrs, thread damage or surface flaws will be picked out and removed.
- The whole production process is controlled under ISO9001 quality management system, all inspection records are properly stored for customer audit and full product traceability.
We adopt standard export packaging to protect DIN7981 Phillips Pan Head Self Tapping Screw from scratches and corrosion during long-distance sea or land transportation. Small packages use plastic bags with labels, and bulk goods are packed in cartons and fixed on wooden pallets. Each package is marked with specification, material and batch number for easy identification. We arrange shipment efficiently once the order is confirmed, and we can meet different packaging requirements according to customer requests.
