M4 Phillips Flat Head Self Tapping Screws,100 pcs Black M4 x 12mm Carbon Steel Wood Screws DIY Woodworking with Box

all good

Very poor quality, would NOT buy again. used about 3 - 4 screws and the screw head broke off every one when tightening without any force being used

We needed small black screws to attach items to the side of an existing cupboard. We found it very difficult to find in local hardware stores either they only had brass coloured screws of the right size, black in larger sizes or small packs of extremely expensive ones of what we were looking for. These were perfect for the jobs we had.

The media could not be loaded. The price tag of under £7 for a 120 screws is, in my opinion, good value and I really like the small plastic box they are contained in. You get a wide range of M4 screws in six lengths (8mm, 12mm, 16mm, 20mm, 30mm, 40mm). For my general purposes this is a very useful range of sizes (you get twenty of each size). I don't do a huge amount of DIY and any DIY I do is not likely to be a huge project... so I am more often than not looking for quite small screws and this kit is perfect for my needs.The screws are described as self-tapping and they do have good 'point' on them and a nice sharp 'deep cutting' thread. The cross-head is accurately formed so you can get a good grip on the screw head with your screwdriver (or drill driver).The manufacturer states that the screws are made from Carbon Steel, which has a higher corrosion and anti-rusting properties than ordinary screws might have. Obviously I have not tested that. It looks to me like the screws have a painted black finish.This is a handy set of generally smaller-sized screws which I think any DIYer would find useful to have in their toolbox.

This little box of wood screws is a good set with 6 different sizes ranging from 8mm to 40mm in length and all are finished in a lovely black finish so if the head is exposed, they look really nice.The heads are well attached with a good deep Philips fitting that stands up well to me putting them in with my impact driver. I like the fact they are self-tapping but for the longer ones I do recommend a small pilot hole for them.The box is very nice and keep them organised well but it’s a shame it doesn't have the sizes of each screw marked on the compartment, plus the fasten clip lasted one opening and closing before it broke.Overall, it’s a good set of well-made screws that have worked perfectly for me putting some shelves up. priced at £6.99 I think they are good value for money, but the box is a bit of let-down.

Absolutely dreadful quality. The heads break (see pic) leaving the other part stuck in wood. They also have no weight whatsoever.Pay a little extra and get better quality.

I was confused by the product description, as my understanding was always that a screw is either a wood screw (for wood, obviously), or it’s a self tapping screw, intended for thin or soft metal, such as on a cooker, stronger and consequently more expensive than wood screws, but these seem to be described as both. Be that as it may, these screws are tough, with sharp points and threads, superior to run-of-the-mill screws. I deliberately tried to abuse one, by forcing it into wood with no pilot hole of any kind. In soft pine it simply went straight in, while in tough hardwood it still went most of the way in until it jammed, but came out again without the head shearing off or the cross recess wearing away. This intentional misuse convinced me that these screws are stronger and more reliable than most.A recommended product.

These were quite fragile with a few snapping without applying a great deal of torque. They started rusting after only a month.
