Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What does “ZP” mean in the product name?
“ZP” stands for Zinc Plated. The screws and nuts are coated with a layer of zinc to improve corrosion resistance and durability.

Q2: Are the nuts included with the screws?
Yes. Each pack includes 6 machine screws and 6 matching nuts, ensuring you have a complete fastening set ready to use.

Q3: What materials are these screws suitable for?
These screws are ideal for metal-to-metal fastening, but they can also be used with wood, plastic, or composite materials when paired with a nut on the reverse side.

Q4: Can I use these for outdoor applications?
The zinc plating offers some corrosion resistance, making them suitable for covered or mildly damp environments. However, they are not recommended for long-term exposure to harsh weather or marine conditions.

Q5: Are these suitable for high-stress structural applications?
These screws are best used for general-purpose fastening. For structural applications, consult engineering specifications or choose high-tensile bolts designed for load-bearing use.

Q6: Can I use thread-locking compound with these screws?
Yes. For vibration-prone applications, a thread-locking adhesive can help prevent loosening over time.

Q7: What tools do I need to install these screws and nuts?
A compatible screwdriver for the screw head and a spanner or socket wrench for the nut are typically sufficient.

Q8: Are these screws reusable?
Yes. As long as the threads remain undamaged and the screws are not overtightened or corroded, they can be reused multiple times.

Q9: Are washers included in the pack?
No. Washers are not included. If required, flat or spring washers can be used to distribute load or prevent loosening.

Q10: What is the difference between M4, M5, and M6 sizes?
These numbers refer to the nominal diameter of the screw in millimeters. M4 is 4mm, M5 is 5mm, and M6 is 6mm. The higher the number, the thicker and stronger the screw.
