Product Information

Full details

These specialized stainless steel screws are designed for DIY enthusiasts, crafters, and builders who need a reliable mounting solution for countersunk magnets. Their primary benefit is the material composition, which minimizes magnetism absorption to prevent short-circuiting the magnet's field and maintaining optimal performance. Note that while they are highly effective for magnetic assemblies, users should ensure their countersunk magnets are compatible with a 4.8mm thread diameter before purchasing.

FAQs

Are these screws magnetic?

These screws are designed to absorb very little magnetism to prevent short-circuiting your magnets, but they may still exhibit mild magnetic properties inherent to their material.

Can I use these for outdoor projects?

Yes, their stainless steel construction offers good corrosion resistance, making them suitable for most standard outdoor DIY projects.

Will these fit any countersunk magnet?

They fit most standard countersunk magnets that accommodate a 4.8mm thread diameter and a 10mm head diameter.

What tools do I need for installation?

You will need a standard screwdriver compatible with the screw's head drive type and a drill for creating pilot holes.

How many screws come in a pack?

This specific package contains 10 individual screws.

Troubleshooting

Screw head sits above the magnet surface

Verify that the magnet hole is truly countersunk; if the hole is flat-bottomed, you may need to countersink the opening further to accommodate the 10mm screw head.

Screw is difficult to drive into material

Ensure you have pre-drilled a pilot hole appropriate for a 4.8mm diameter screw, especially when working with hardwoods.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Prevents magnetic field interference (short-circuiting)
  • Corrosion-resistant stainless steel construction
  • Flush-mount fit for countersunk holes
  • High-quality build suitable for professional or hobbyist use

Cons

  • Not intended for non-countersunk applications
  • Fixed length of 32mm may not suit every project thickness
  • Limited to a 4.8mm thread diameter requirement

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best results, ensure your magnet has a countersunk bore that matches the 10mm head diameter of these screws. If you are drilling into wood, it is recommended to pilot-hole the surface to prevent the material from splitting. Use a Phillips-head screwdriver that matches the screw size to avoid stripping the head. While stainless steel is resistant to rust, avoid using these in highly acidic or marine environments without additional protection if necessary. Keep the screws dry during storage to maintain their finish.
