Description

What is this

A countersunk screw with a coarse tapered thread that comes to a point, of the kind that cuts its own way into soft material.

What you use it for

Fastening into printed parts, foam or soft wood without a nut on the other side. Useful when you want the fastener itself printed rather than sourced.

Design notes

The taper is what the threading routine does with a partially tapered end, so the point is real geometry and not a cone stuck on the tip. A printed screw will not hold like a steel one; keep the load light.

Parameters

diameter is the nominal size and length includes the head. Coarse threads print better at larger diameters, so start around 6 mm.
