Product Summary

Longze Precision Ultra-Thin & Flat Head Screws are engineered for applications where vertical clearance is non-existent. Manufactured in Yongnian, China, our wafer and flat

head screws provide a secure mechanical bond without the protrusion of a standard hex or pan head. Whether for a slim-profile laptop chassis, a sliding door rail, or a flush-mount medical device, Longze low-profile screws offer the structural integrity of stainless steel with the aesthetic of a completely flat surface.

• ✔ Ultra-Low Profile Header: Our wafer screws feature a head height as thin as 0.5mm - 0.8mm, allowing for overlapping components to move freely without interference.

•  

• ✔ Precision 90° Countersink: Our flat head variants (DIN 7991/ISO 10642) are forged with an exact conical angle to ensure a perfect flush-fit into pre-chamfered holes, eliminating snagging hazards.

•  

• ✔ High-Torque Drive Options: Available with Torx (6-Lobe) または Phillips drives, cold-swaged to maximum depth to prevent stripping during high-speed automated assembly.

•  

• Standards: DIN 965, ISO 14581, IFI (Wafer Head Custom), JIS B1111.

•  

• Diameter Range: M1.4 to M10 | #2 - 3/8".

•  

• Head Styles: Wafer (Ultra-Thin), Flat (Countersunk), Slim Head.

•  

• Drive Types: Torx (T-Drive), Phillips, Slotted, Hex Socket.

•  

• Material Grade: SS304 (A2), SS316 (A4), SS410 (Hardened).

•  

• Surface Finish: Passivated (Bright), Black Oxide (Stainless), Electropolished.

Avoid Pitfalls:

• Drive Stripping (The "Low Head" Trap): Because the head is ultra-thin, the drive recess (socket) is also shallow. Longze recommends using Torx (6-Lobe) drives for M3 and smaller sizes to maximize torque transfer and prevent bit slippage.

•  

• Material Selection for Threading: If you are screwing directly into hard steel or aluminum, choose Hardened SS410 to ensure the threads don't collapse before fully seating.

•  

• The "Flush" Myth: For flat head screws, if the 90° chamfer in the workpiece is even 0.1mm too shallow, the screw will sit high. We provide Low-Profile Flat Heads with a slightly reduced head diameter to compensate for minor machining tolerances.

•  

Perfect Fit Assembly:

• Nylok Patches: For high-vibration electronics (like servers or automotive sensors), we can apply a Blue/Green Nylok patch to the threads to ensure they never vibrate loose.

•  

• Precision Driver Bits: Always use high-quality, CNC-ground driver bits. Worn-out bits are the #1 cause of head damage in ultra-thin screws.

•  

Quality Control & Logistics:

• ISO 9001 Certified: 5-step QC including Computerized Vision Sorting (to ensure head thickness consistency), thread gauge verification, and spectrometer material analysis.

•  

• Sea-Worthy Packaging: Screws are packed in small moisture-proof bags (e.g., 500 or 1000 pcs), then secured in reinforced master cartons for export from our Yongnian hub.

• Q: Can you make the head even thinner than 0.5mm? A: For M2 and M2.5, we can achieve 0.4mm head thickness via specialized cold-heading, but we highly recommend a Torx drive to maintain installation torque.

• Q: Do you offer these in black? A: Yes, we provide a specialized Stainless Black Oxide that gives a premium matte finish without compromising the corrosion resistance of the SS304/SS316 base material.
