DIC Fasteners is a Manufacturer, Supplier, and Exporter of Screws everything from standard to non-standard size, material, grades, and thread profile. We also specialize in Wood screws, Thread Cutting screws, and other various types of Screws.
The Screw is a type of fastener, which is usually made from metal that commonly comprises a head at one end, a point at the other, and a shaft shape so that it can be turned into another material. These screws are available in both inch and metric threads in different materials like aluminum, stainless steel, steel screws, plastic screws, etc.
The head of the screw is usually larger than the body of the screw, which keeps it from being driven deeper than the length of the screw and provides a bearing surface. The cylindrical portion of the screws from the underside of its head to the tip is called the shank.
