1. Different appearance. The flat head screw head and the bolt connection part are at right angles, in our use process will also be more convenient. Countersunk head screws extend from the screw head to the screw in a tapered manner. The head of the screw and the surface of the product are flat and there is no difference between touch.

2. Different combinations. Flat head screw, because its joint is 90 degrees, so according to the actual use of the situation to add a spring flat pad together, but this situation is not common. Countersunk head screws can only be added with taper gaskets.

3. Use them differently. Countersunk head screws can go into the inside of the countersunk hole, or they can be exposed on the outside, while countersunk head screws are generally only on the inside.
