FAQs:

• Can these screws be used in damp environments?
  The black phosphate coating offers good corrosion resistance, making these screws suitable for indoor applications, including damp environments. However, they are not recommended for direct exposure to water.
• What type of screwdriver is compatible with these screws?
  These screws are designed for use with a Phillips PH2 screwdriver or drill bit, which is included in the box for added convenience.
