Ruwag Self Tapping Screw Pan Combi 5x38mm (50) is a new auto part used for self-tapping applications requiring 5x38mm pan combi screws. Pack contains 50 screws

Ruwag Self Tapping Screw Pan Combi 5x38mm (50) is a pack of 50 self-tapping screws featuring a pan head with a combination drive. These screws are designed to create their own threads when driven into suitable materials, which is common in securing metal, plastic, or wood components in automotive and industrial applications.

This type of screw is typically used where a reliable and strong fastening is needed without pre-drilling holes. The pan head shape provides a low profile and distributes holding force evenly, while the combination drive allows for compatibility with both slotted and Phillips screwdrivers, increasing versatility during installation or repair.

Buyers should compare the 5x38mm screw dimensions—5mm shaft diameter and 38mm length—with the worn or broken screws they need to replace. This ensures the correct size and thread match the original parts for secure fastening. The pack quantity of 50 is useful for larger projects or maintaining a stock of commonly used fasteners.

  • Pan head with combination drive (slotted + Phillips)
  • Self-tapping design for thread cutting
  • Dimensions: 5mm diameter, 38mm length
  • Pack of 50 screws for bulk needs

This listing offers a new condition set of screws branded under Ruwag Self Tapping. For situations requiring a different size or screw type, consider submitting a part request or consulting the sales desk for assistance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers before you order. If anything is unclear, confirm fitment first using your VIN or part number and avoid mistakes.
Helpful product answers
What materials are the Ruwag Self Tapping Screw Pan Combi 5x38mm suitable for?
These screws are designed primarily for use in metal and plastic applications where a secure fastening is required. Their self-tapping feature allows them to create threads in softer materials without pre-drilling, making them ideal for light to medium-duty tasks. Always ensure the material thickness is compatible with the 38mm length to avoid over-penetration.
How do I properly install the Ruwag Self Tapping Screw Pan Combi 5x38mm to avoid damage?
A common mistake is applying too much torque, which can strip the screw head or damage the material. Use a screwdriver or drill with adjustable torque settings and start at a low speed. Ensure the screw is aligned perpendicular to the surface before driving it in to maintain a secure fit and prevent cross-threading.
Can these screws be reused after removal?
While it is possible to reuse self-tapping screws, it is generally not recommended as the threads may be worn or damaged after removal. Reusing them can compromise the holding strength and lead to loosening over time. For critical applications, always use new screws to ensure maximum reliability.
Are these screws compatible with power tools?
Yes, the Ruwag Self Tapping Screw Pan Combi 5x38mm screws are compatible with power drills and electric screwdrivers. However, it is important to use the correct combi bit to match the screw head to avoid cam-out or stripping. Adjust the torque settings on your tool to prevent over-tightening and damage.
