Square Head Fasteners & Screws
With over 40 years of service, Valley Fastener is a leading manufacturer of square-head fasteners for woodworking, construction, electrical, and industrial applications. Square drive screws resist cam out, making them a good choice for high-torque applications.
Applications and Uses for Square Head Screws
Square head screws are ideal for high-torque situations. They require very little pressure for the drive head to remain engaged, significantly reducing the risk of cam out. They are widely used in the following applications:
- Electronics
- Framing and decking
- Industrial machinery
- Woodworking
We manufacture square-head fasteners that meet ASTM, SAE, or ISO standards. We can also create custom fasteners that align with project specifications.
Materials
Steel
Steel is durable and has good formability. Different steel alloys enhance its mechanical properties, including hardness and corrosion resistance, making it an excellent choice for fasteners used in high-moisture locations and industrial applications.
Aluminum
Lightweight and corrosion-resistant, aluminum also offers conductivity for electrical applications. We manufacture square head fasteners from CHQ Aluminum Material (2024-T4, 2011-T3, 1000, and 6061) and 5000 and 6000 series aluminum alloys.
Brass
Brass offers excellent conductivity and is non-magnetic, making it a good choice for electronics applications. We use CDA 260 and CDA 270 brass, which conform to ASTM B-134 standards.
Stainless Steel
Stainless steel is a popular fastener material for highly corrosive environments. It is strong and has good mechanical properties, making it suitable for a wide range of uses.
Body Style
Valley Fastener can manufacture custom fasteners to meet your specific project requirements. We offer machine screws, threading screws, and self-tapping screws in the following profiles:
- Type AB
- Type B

Whether you need anti-cross threading, dog point, or header point screws, Valley Fasteners will work with you to find the appropriate square head fasteners for your project.
Finishes
Finishes offer protection against environmental conditions that could impact fastener function and durability. Some coatings, such as zinc, reduce the amount of maintenance required.
We manufacture steel square-head fasteners with galvanized, zinc-plated, and standard finishes. Hot-dipped galvanized and zinc plating offers corrosion resistance and increased durability. Plain, oiled steel fasteners are suitable for standard applications with minimal moisture exposure.
