A screw is a type of fastener, sometimes similar to a bolt (see Differentiation between bolt and screw below), typically made of metal, and characterized by a helical ridge, known as a male thread (external thread) or just thread.
A screw will usually have a head on one end that contains a specially formed shape that allows it to be turned, or driven, with a tool. Common tools for driving screws include screwdrivers and wrenches. The head is usually larger than the body of the screw, which keeps the screw from being driven deeper than the length of the screw and to provide a bearing surface.
When choosing the right fastener for your application, you’ll need to consider several factors, including material, size, thread specification, and required torque.

Pan heads are slightly curved with a low, large diameter and high outer edge. The large surface area enables slotted or flat drivers to easily grip and exert force onto the head. Pan heads are one of the most popular head types, recommended for most new designs to replace round, truss, or binding heads.
