Westfield Fasteners Product Specification:

ASME B18.6.3 - UNC Slotted Pan Head Machine Screws

This product guide contains the specification for UNC thread Slotted Pan Head Machine Screws, a series of standard parts available from Westfield Fasteners. The basis of this specification is the ASME standard ASME B18.6.3.

Product Description
A pan head machine screw with a slot drive, designed to be tightened with a flat screwdriver. Often used in consumer electronics and other small machinery where high torque fasteners are not needed.

Scope of the ASME Standard
Unlike ISO standards, each ASME standard generally covers a range or family of product types. ASME B18.6.3 covers many machine screw types, including these UNC slotted pan machine screws and decribes the form, dimensions and tolerances, starting from the diameter of gauge size 0000, up to and including 3/4 inch.

The slot drive can have parallel or slightly tapered sides.
