Pozi Pan Head Screws (GB818-2016 / ISO 7045) — Alloy Steel Class 8.8, Zinc Cr3
FULLERKREG supplies high-strength Pozi (Pozidriv) pan head machine screws conforming to GB818-2016 and ISO 7045. Manufactured from alloy steel 10B21 (boron-alloyed medium carbon steel) and heat-treated to property class 8.8, then finished with a trivalent zinc chromate (Zinc Cr3) coating. These screws deliver twice the tensile strength of standard Class 4.8 fasteners, making them the preferred choice for structural, mechanical, and high-load assemblies where both strength and corrosion protection are required.

Material — Alloy Steel 10B21
10B21 is a boron-alloyed medium carbon steel widely used for high-strength fasteners. The addition of boron (0.0005–0.003%) significantly improves hardenability, allowing Class 8.8 mechanical properties to be achieved with lower carbon content compared to plain carbon steels — resulting in better toughness, weldability, and consistent heat treatment response.

Selection Guide
| Application / Requirement |
Recommendation |
| Structural & load-bearing assemblies |
Class 8.8 — 800 MPa tensile, suitable for high-stress joints |
| Machinery & equipment manufacturing |
M4–M10; Q&T alloy steel for vibration and fatigue resistance |
| Automotive body & chassis components |
Class 8.8 Cr3 BZP — RoHS compliant, high strength, corrosion protected |
| Electronics & precision enclosures (high torque) |
M3–M5; Pozi drive resists cam-out under power tool assembly |
| Replacement for Class 4.8 in upgraded designs |
Same ISO 7045 geometry — drop-in upgrade, no tooling change |
| Indoor / light outdoor with corrosion protection |
Zinc Cr3 — ≥ 72 h salt spray, adequate for most industrial environments |
| Marine / severe corrosive environments |
Consider A4 stainless steel grades for superior corrosion resistance |
