I looking for dimensions for a Phillips Head screw.  I found slot length, width, and depth.  But I could not find included angle.  Does anyone have theses dimension or better yet a drawing for a #2 Phillips Head.Joe  

It begs the question as to why you are even drawing a screw when there are entire symbol (block) libraries of screws and bolts available?80-82 degrees.

John Connor,Thanks for your response.  Basically, I drawing phillips head screws as a brain teasers while I recover from By-pass surgery.  I tried finding 3d phillips head screws in the Cad forum search and google search, but didn't have much luck.  The only download I found was incompatible with AutoCad 2000.  If you are aware of a good link I would much appreciate your passing on the link for the web site or download.  Any other reviewers who would like to comment are more than welcome!!Joe 

Are you doing this in 2D or 3D?I gave you the angle.  You have the other information.  What more do you need?

John ConnerThanks again for your reply.  I'm trying to draw in 3D and I am fairly new to AutoCad 3D.  I'm not questioning you answer of 80-82 degrees for the included angle. But when I draw the slot width and depth, the 80-82 degree angle cuts off the bottom of the depth.  So, I'm doing something wrong, or some of the information (dimensions) I'm using are incorrect.  Any additional input from you would be appreciated.Joe 

I'm still looking for dimensions for a #2 Phillips Head slot.  John Conner supplied 82 deg. as the included angle.  I just notice that 82 deg. is the included angle for "flat head" screw, not the included angle for #2 Phillips Head slot.  Does anyone have dimension for the slot (particularly the included angle).  Or does anyone have a link to downloads for 3D screws. Your response is always appreciated. JRob

I gave you a range of 80-82.Here's an idea.  Find H.F. Phillips' patent (No. US2046837) and check to see if the angle is mentioned in the Overview, Abstract, Drawings or Description.  Have you never done basic research?  Or....get a screw and measure it yourself.
