DIN 84 CHEESE HEAD MACHINE SCREW
Fastenic Group India Is leading manufacturer of Stainless Steel DIN 84 Cheese Head Machine Screw in 304 & 316 Grade. DIN 84 is a standard specification for cheese head machine screws. Here are the key characteristics of DIN 84 cheese head machine screws:
- Head Style: Cheese head screws have a cylindrical head with a flat top surface and a rounded, slightly concave underside. The shape resembles a wheel of cheese, hence the name “cheese head.”
- Drive Type: The standard drive type for DIN 84 cheese head machine screws is typically slotted. The head features a single straight slot, allowing for tightening or loosening with a standard flat-blade screwdriver.
- Thread: DIN 84 cheese head machine screws typically have metric threads. The thread size is specified by the standard, such as M2, M3, M4, etc. The pitch (distance between adjacent threads) is also defined.
- Length and Diameter: The standard specifies the range of screw lengths and diameters available for each thread size. You can find DIN 84 cheese head machine screws in various lengths to suit your specific application.
- Material: DIN 84 cheese head machine screws can be manufactured from different materials, including stainless steel (such as grades 304 and 316), carbon steel, or other alloys. The choice of material depends on factors like the intended application, environmental conditions, and desired properties like corrosion resistance.
Cheese head machine screws are commonly used in applications where a low-profile, rounded head is desired, and a slotted drive is sufficient for the intended installation and removal. By adhering to the DIN 84 standard, manufacturers ensure consistency and interchangeability of cheese head machine screws, making it easier for users to find compatible screws and achieve desired assembly results.
