Common Types of Brass Screws

Brass screws come in diverse types, each tailored to specific application requirements and functional needs. Common varieties include:

1.Brass Machine Screws: Feature precise machine-cut threads that pair with pre-tapped holes, ensuring tight, stable connections. Ideal for precision equipment, electronic enclosures, and mechanical assemblies where consistent fastening force is critical, compatible with various metal and hard plastic substrates.​

2.Brass Round Head Wood Screws: Boast a smooth round head that sits neatly on wood surfaces, combined with sharp, coarse threads for strong grip in wood materials. Perfect for furniture making, wooden crafts, and cabinetry, balancing aesthetic appeal with reliable wood-to-wood fastening.​

3.Brass Screw in Washer: Integrate a built-in washer (often flat or lock washer) with the screw, eliminating the need for separate washers. Great for applications requiring vibration resistance and simplified assembly, such as automotive accessories and household fixtures.​

4.Brass Self Screws: Designed with self-tapping threads that cut into materials (like plastic, thin metal, or soft wood) without pre-drilling, saving time and effort. Suitable for quick-installation scenarios including electrical junction boxes, plastic casings, and lightweight DIY projects.
