Suki Machine Screw M3x16, DIN 84, Zinc Plated, 16 Pieces

The Suki machine screw M3x16 is a high-quality fastener designed for precision mechanical assembly. Manufactured to the DIN 84 standard, these screws feature a cylindrical head and a reliable metric thread, ensuring a secure fit in various metal and plastic components. The zinc-plated finish provides essential protection against corrosion, making these screws a dependable choice for both indoor and light-duty outdoor applications.

Advantages

These machine screws offer excellent durability and structural integrity due to their robust steel construction. The zinc-plated surface treatment significantly enhances resistance to rust and environmental wear, extending the lifespan of your assemblies. With a standardized cylindrical head design, they provide a clean, professional appearance and are easy to install using standard screwdrivers. The precise M3 threading ensures compatibility with a wide range of nuts and pre-threaded holes, facilitating efficient and stable connections in diverse mechanical projects.

Suitable for

• Fastening metal plates and brackets
• Securing plastic housings and covers
• General mechanical repairs and maintenance
• Model building and small-scale assembly projects

When it may not be suitable

These screws are not recommended for heavy-duty structural applications or high-load bearing connections where high-tensile bolts are required. Additionally, while the zinc plating offers basic corrosion resistance, they are not suitable for use in highly corrosive environments, such as marine settings or areas with constant chemical exposure.

Key specifications

• Thread diameter: 3 mm
• Length: 16 mm
• Standard: DIN 84
• Head type: Cylindrical
• Material: Zinc-plated steel
• Quantity: 16 pieces

How to use

To install the Suki machine screw, ensure that the receiving hole is properly aligned and, if necessary, pre-tapped with an M3 thread. Insert the screw into the component and tighten it using a compatible flat-head screwdriver. Apply steady pressure to ensure the head sits flush against the surface without over-tightening, which could damage the thread or the material being fastened.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the required thread diameter and length for your specific application
• Ensure the material thickness is compatible with the 16 mm length
• Check if the DIN 84 cylindrical head design is appropriate for your installation space

Usage recommendations

For optimal results, use a screwdriver that fits the slot size perfectly to prevent slipping and damaging the screw head. If installing into soft plastic, avoid excessive torque to prevent stripping the threads.
