The best way to identify a Pozidrive head is by the diagonal engraved lines between the four points of the cross head.
A pan head or round head is a domed raised head which has a flat, level underside to it. Round/pan head fixings were actually designed for fixing against metal surfaces, but they are commonly used to fix to a variety of rigid surfaces. The most commonly used fixing in applications where a flush finish is not a necessity.
A2 stainless steel is often referred to as 304 or 18/8 Stainless. 18/8 actually refers to the amount of chromium and nickel in the alloy - 18% chromium and 8% nickel.
