Planning Guide

Plan the right fit before choosing

Thread Size and Length Planning

Confirm the sizes required for compatible components

The available assortments cover several common fastening ranges. Inch options include #6, #8, #10, #12, and 1/4 in. sizes, while metric options cover M3 through M6. Some focused kits are built around a single thread size, such as #6-32, #8-32, or #10-32.

  • Select inch or metric hardware based on the threads required by the application.
  • Compare individual thread sizes within broad assortments, including #6-32 through 1/4-20 where listed.
  • Check available lengths: selected assortments range from 3/8 in. to 1 in., while certain #6-32, #8-32, and #10-32 kits span 1/2 in. to 2 in.
Head, Drive, and Material Selection

Choose a profile and drive that fit the fastening task

Flat head screws are intended to sit flush in compatible countersunk applications. Pan heads provide a rounded pan-head profile, and round-head assortments support applications requiring that head style. Drive options vary across Phillips, slotted, Phillips/slotted, and square/slotted configurations.

  • Choose Phillips-drive options for compatible Phillips tools.
  • Consider Phillips/slotted or square/slotted kits where either listed drive engagement option is useful.
  • Compare carbon steel, zinc-plated steel, and 304 stainless steel constructions based on the product requirements.
Included Hardware and Assortment Format

Decide whether screws alone or coordinated hardware is needed

Many selections focus on machine screws across multiple sizes and lengths. Other assortments provide matching hex nuts, which can help pair screw thread sizes with corresponding nuts. A 304 stainless steel hex assortment also keeps hex nuts, SAE flat washers, and split lock washers together.

  • Select an assortment with matching hex nuts when corresponding nuts are needed for the work.
  • Choose a nuts-and-washers assortment when those listed components are also required.
  • For larger mixed selections, 270-piece and 330-piece assortments are represented.
