Cross Recessed Countersunk Head Tapping Screw — Product Introduction

The cross recessed countersunk head tapping screw is a self-tapping fastener with a countersunk (flat) head and a cross recess drive. Its conical head surface mates with the countersunk hole in the connected part; after tightening, the screw head can sink completely into the base material surface, achieving a flush and neat connection. The product is manufactured according to GB/T 846-2017, with thread specifications covering ST2.2–ST9.5. It is mainly used for fastening connections between thin metal sheets, plastics and wood materials, without pre-tapping, relying on its own thread to extrude a mating internal thread in the pilot hole.

1. Product Features

• Countersunk flush design: The head has a 90° conical countersunk surface. After tightening, it is flush with the base material surface, suitable for applications with high appearance requirements or where the screw head must not protrude.
• Cross recess drive: Uses standard cross recess (PH1, PH2, etc.), compatible with common Phillips screwdrivers or power tools, providing stable torque transmission and reducing slippage.
• Self-tapping thread structure: The pitch is larger than ordinary machine screws, and the pointed design facilitates quick penetration into the base material, extruding a mating thread without pre-tapping.
• Wide specification coverage: According to GB/T 846-2017, thread specifications cover ST2.2–ST9.5, product grade A.
• Various materials and surface treatments: Common materials include carbon steel (such as SWRCH22A, 1022) and stainless steel (304/316). Carbon steel parts can be blue-white zinc plated, nickel plated, etc.; stainless steel parts are usually supplied in natural or bright-washed condition.

2. Product Advantages

• Flat surface after installation: The countersunk structure embeds the screw head into the base material, improving appearance neatness and avoiding scratch risks.
• Single-side operation and high efficiency: No mating nut or back-side work is required, suitable for closed structures or assembly scenarios accessible from one side.
• Eliminates tapping process: The self-tapping thread is directly extruded, simplifying the assembly process and suitable for automated production lines and batch use.
• Suitable for various base materials: Can be used for wood, plastic, thin metal sheets (thickness ≤2 mm), etc., with flexible application.

3. Scope of Application

• Furniture manufacturing and assembly: Panel connections for wardrobes, cabinets, tables and chairs, and other wooden or panel furniture.
• Building decoration and renovation: Fixing of gypsum board ceilings, partition keels, skirting lines and decorative panels.
• Electronics and home appliances: Assembly of housings and internal components of small appliances, electronic equipment chassis and lighting fixtures.
• Outdoor and bathroom facilities: Stainless steel versions can adapt to humid environments such as outdoor furniture, awnings and bathroom cabinets.
• General industrial assembly: Thin sheet connection applications requiring quick fastening, such as light mechanical equipment, automotive interior parts and communication equipment chassis.

Procurement Questions

Common procurement questions about specification, material, finish and delivery.

Please confirm the application position, load, connection thickness and working environment first, then match diameter, length, thread pitch, material, strength grade, surface finish and applicable standard. Drawings, photos or old samples help us quote more accurately.

Hot-dip galvanizing and Dacromet are common choices for outdoor applications. For humid, coastal or chemical environments, stainless steel 304/316 or higher corrosion-resistant solutions may be better.

Please provide drawings or 3D files, material, dimensions, tolerance, grade, surface treatment, packing method and quantity. If drawings are not ready, samples or installation photos can also be reviewed.

Bolts and nuts should match nominal diameter, thread pitch, thread type, standard and strength grade. High-strength connections should also use suitable washers and anti-loosening solutions.

Application Scenarios

Choose material, grade and surface treatment based on real working conditions.

Construction

Steel structures, curtain walls, embedded parts and site assembly.

Machinery

Equipment assembly, maintenance parts and frame fixing.

Solar Mounting

Outdoor brackets, corrosion resistance and weather exposure.
