Product Overview
These are #0 x 3/16 inch self-threading micro screws in 18-8 stainless steel with a slotted fillister head. Against the ruler the screw measures about 5 mm overall, consistent with the listed 3/16 inch length, and next to the penny you can see just how small a #0 fastener runs. The fillister profile is taller than a pan head with deeper slot engagement, which helps a small flat blade driver stay seated on a screw this size. The sharp gimlet point visible in the macro shots is what lets it start and cut its own path in soft materials without a pre-tapped hole. Sold in packs of 20, so a dropped or stripped screw does not stall the job.

Frequently Asked Questions
What driver do these take?
A small slotted (flat blade) driver. The fillister head's deeper slot gives the blade more to hold onto than a shallow pan head.
What is the thread pitch?
Not confirmed - verify against your application before use, or ask us to measure before ordering if pitch is critical.
Will a magnetic driver tip hold them?
18-8 stainless is austenitic and usually only weakly magnetic. Plan on tweezers or a screw-holding driver for placement.
Are they corrosion resistant?
Yes. 18-8 stainless steel resists rust and corrosion in normal service.
Why buy a 20 pack here instead of a 500 piece lot on Amazon?
Because nobody repairing one instrument needs 500 screws. PartsMine sells sensible quantities - one 20 pack, or a few packs if the job calls for it. Shipping is $8 flat rate, free over $28, so the small order usually beats a forced bulk lot by a wide margin. Same or next business day shipping from Idaho.
A #0 screw is easy to lose and nearly impossible to find locally on a Sunday afternoon. Twenty of them in one bag is how the small repair actually gets finished.
