M3 x 8 mm Phillips pan-head screws
These stainless-steel fasteners use a metric M3 thread and an 8 mm shaft length to secure fans directly to liquid-cooling radiators. They suit PC builders who are assembling custom loops and need the correct thread pitch for standard radiator mounting holes. The pan head distributes clamping force evenly across the fan frame without countersinking.
Installation uses a common Phillips driver
A standard #1 or #2 Phillips bit engages the cross recess cleanly, so no special tools are required. Because the threads are metric, forcing the screw into an imperial-threaded hole will strip either the screw or the radiator; verify the radiator’s thread specification before starting. Over-tightening can deform the thin fan frame, so stop when the head seats firmly.
Stainless steel resists corrosion under continuous
The material withstands the warm, moist airflow inside a liquid-cooled chassis without rusting or seizing over long periods. Threads remain free to allow future fan removal for cleaning or upgrade. The finish does not degrade under sustained thermal cycling the way plated carbon steel can.

Questions about this item
How do I verify the M3 x 8mm Phillips pan-head screws are holding the radiator fans securely after installation?
Check that each screw sits flush with the fan frame and that the fan does not wobble when the case is gently shaken.
What comes in the MOD-0325 pack and do I need any extra hardware to mount the fans?
The pack contains the M3 x 8mm stainless-steel Phillips pan-head screws only; no washers, nuts or tools are included.
Which screw length should I choose from the ModMyMods range for a standard 25 mm thick radiator with 25 mm fans?
Select the 8 mm length (MOD-0325) so the threads engage the radiator without bottoming out or protruding.
