ZAGO’s Oversized Phillips Flat Head Sealing Screws are engineered for applications that demand a clean, flush installation without compromising sealing performance. Each screw integrates ZAGO’s signature O-ring, a custom-engineered, chemically resistant elastomer that fits into a specially designed groove beneath the head. Once installed, the O-ring compresses into the groove, forming a 360-degree leak-proof, airtight barrier, preventing contaminants including water, oil, gas, dust and moisture from entering or escaping sensitive equipment, protecting both operational integrity and environmental safety.
Unlike traditional fasteners, the unified design of ZAGO’s Oversized Phillips Flat Head Sealing Screws eliminates the need for secondary washers, gaskets, and sealants, reducing assembly time, lowering total part count, and improving long-term reliability.
The oversized flat head is easy to install and create a clean, flush finish suited for a number of high-performance applications, including electronics, automotive components, machine parts and more.
Oversized head fasteners increase the load-bearing surface, distributing clamp force over a wider area. This reduces localized stress on thin or soft materials and helps prevent deformation, cracking or pull-through. It also improves stability across uneven or rough surfaces, where standard heads may concentrate load in smaller contact zones.
Increased surface area also supports more consistent compression of sealing elements, such as ZAGO’s O-rings. By allowing for more uniform compression of the sealing element without excessive torque, oversized head designs help reduce the risk of thread stripping, over tightening, and material damage.
All components are fully customizable (see detail below) and engineered-to-order to ensure optimal performance. ZAGO’s team of US-based engineers is available to share their expertise and help make the best choice.
