x10 M3.5 x70mm Long Electrical Machine Screws for Light Switch Plug Socket

I created a wood slat feature wall and rather than cutting around the lightswitch I ordered these extra long electrical screws so the switch could fit over them. The threads went in nice and easily with no force and created a nice secure fit with no rounding or dents of the tops. The only downside was I only needed two of them and the minimum pack size was 10. Hopefully I can cut them down to use in the future for other projects. For the money though they were not much more than I imagine 2 would cost anyway. Altogether, just right and saved me a lot of hassle.

Good product, disappointed with the delivery time

For some reason the previous owner of my house seems to have taken great delight on putting the back plates of the lights switches really deep into the walls so these screws were needed to fix new stylish switches or in some rooms smart light dimmers with a thicker profile to replace the old ones.As these were slightly over-sized for some fittings where the back plate was too far for the standard screws so I had the cut one or two down to the right size.They are a good quality and fitted all the standard UK screw holes as expected.

being 70mm long the screws were just what I wanted

I needed bigger screws for my light switches and these were just what I needed

I had a wall that needed replastering but the plasterer also wanted to plasterboard first to ensure a smooth finish. This was fine but left the electrical socked backbox very deep, but these extra long screws were perfect for fixing on the faceplate.

very good value for money

They fit fine, but they are just machine screws. I doubt they are correct for light switches and plug sockets - the head size is certainly smaller than any I've ever seen, or replaced.
