How to choose

Phillips or Pozidriv?
Both are available (H or Z recess). Pozidriv reduces cam-out on power tools; Phillips is more common in North America.
Pan head or countersunk?
Pan heads sit on the surface and give a larger bearing area; countersunk heads need a 90° countersink and finish flush.
