Screws

Screws are threaded fasteners characterized by helical grooves along a cylindrical shaft. Comprising a head, shank, and threads, they convert rotational motion into linear force. Common types include wood screws, machine screws, and self-tapping screws. Thread profiles vary, influencing grip strength and application suitability. Screws facilitate efficient assembly, providing robust connections in construction, manufacturing, and electronics. Diverse materials such as steel, aluminum, and plastics are used, each offering distinct properties. Their versatility, ease of use, and ability to generate strong, stable joints make screws integral components across industries, serving essential roles in joining and securing diverse materials.
