Ruwag Self Tapping Screw Pan Combi 5.5x30mm (10) includes 10 self tapping screws sized 5.5x30mm with pan combi head for fastening

Ruwag Self Tapping Screw Pan Combi 5.5x30mm (10) is a pack of ten self tapping screws designed for automotive applications that require secure fastening with reliable thread cutting into the mounting surface. These screws feature a pan head with a combination drive, allowing compatibility with both slotted and Phillips screwdrivers, which offers flexibility during installation or removal.

This type of screw is commonly used to fasten plastic trim, panels, or metal components where a pre-drilled hole is absent or not required, as the self tapping design enables the screw to create its own thread. The 5.5x30mm size denotes the screw diameter and length, making it suitable for various automotive repair or assembly tasks needing this specific dimension.

Comparing this component to your original fasteners involves checking the head style, drive type, diameter, and length to ensure proper fit and secure fastening. The pan head design provides a low profile that reduces the risk of snagging or obstruction, which is typical in interior or exterior vehicle trim applications.

  • Pack quantity: 10 screws
  • Combination (Combi) drive allows use of flat or Phillips screwdriver
  • Self tapping thread cuts into the material for secure fixing

When replacing screws, confirm the 5.5mm diameter and 30mm length match your existing parts. For any fitting compatibility questions, consider reaching out to the sales desk or submitting a request for assistance to confirm suitability for your specific vehicle or task.
