Painted Head Sheet Metal Screws
We follow ASTM D3359 for cross-cut paint adhesion testing. The adhesion rating is 4B or 5B. The cut edges are smooth with no peeling. We wipe with alcohol or acetone 50 times. The paint does not fade or soften. With zinc plating and paint, the neutral salt spray test (ASTM B117) gives 200-300 hours with no red rust.
Use Colors to Sort with Our Painted Head Screws
Do you need different colors for different screw sizes? Does your product have a look requirement? Our Painted Head Screws get zinc plating first for rust protection. Then we spray or bake paint on the head. Different colors can show different sizes, torque levels, or assembly positions. We are a Shanghai factory. We have made fasteners for 20 years.
Check Our Paint Adhesion and Salt Spray Data
We follow ASTM D3359 for cross-cut paint adhesion testing. The adhesion rating is 4B or 5B. The cut edges are smooth with no peeling. We wipe with alcohol or acetone 50 times. The paint does not fade or soften. With zinc plating and paint, the neutral salt spray test (ASTM B117) gives 200-300 hours with no red rust. This is much higher than zinc plating alone. Our base material is carbon steel SWRCH35K or 10B21. The strength grade is 8.8 or 10.9. The paint thickness is 20-50 μm (single or double layer). Colors can match PANTONE or RAL codes. We first do zinc plating (white, blue-white, or yellow zinc). The zinc layer is 5-12 μm thick. This gives basic rust protection. Then we spray or bake paint on the screw head. Baking uses high temperature (120-180°C). The paint sticks better. Spraying uses air drying. It costs less. Colors include black, white, red, blue, yellow, and green. We can match your color sample.

Why Our Follow-up Service and Color Coding Help You
We have order trackers. They follow every step from your first price inquiry to delivery at your warehouse. Mass production takes 2-3 weeks for standard parts. Custom products take 4 weeks. Repeat orders are even faster. Color coding examples: M3 black for motherboard fixing. M4 red for ground wire connection. M5 blue for housing assembly. You can assign different colors to different assembly steps. This reduces wrong part installation. Besides solid colors, we can do two-color paint, dot paint (only the top of the head), or silk screen logos. The baked paint version works from -20°C to +120°C. It will not crack or change color. The head drive slot (Phillips, Torx, internal hex) stays clear after painting. At the recommended torque, the paint will not peel or block the slot if we keep paint thickness ≤30 μm.
The entire product line is fully customizable.
