Toolcraft Phillips Countersunk Screw DIN 965 Polyamide - M3 x 15mm

The primary advantage is electrical insulation. Plastic screws do not conduct electricity, making them ideal for electronic assemblies or environments where short circuits must be prevented.

Yes, they are resistant to corrosion and rust, making them suitable for many outdoor applications. However, prolonged exposure to harsh UV light or extreme temperatures might degrade the plastic over time.

The 'M3' indicates the thread diameter is 3mm. The '15mm' and '20mm' refer to the length of the screw. An M3 x 15mm screw is 15mm long from the point where the head starts to sit flush, while an M3 x 20mm screw is 20mm long.

No, as they are made of plastic, they are not magnetic.

You need a Phillips head screwdriver. The size will depend on the exact fit, but typically a PH1 or PH2 is used for M3 screws.

This pack contains 10 screws.

No, these screws are not designed for structural support or heavy load-bearing applications. They are intended for fastening non-load-bearing components, especially where electrical isolation is needed.

Ensure you are using the correct size Phillips screwdriver. Apply firm, consistent pressure and avoid excessive force, especially if the mating thread is difficult to engage. Try backing the screw out and re-engaging with less torque.

Verify that the mating hole is indeed an M3 thread. Check for any debris or damage in the threaded hole. Ensure the screw is aligned straight with the thread.

The material may be too soft, or the thread is damaged. Plastic screws have less holding power than metal. Consider using a larger screw size if possible, or a different fastening method for higher strength requirements.
