The *-tite screws

I recently had to repair an apparatus where the casing screws were missing. Once repaired, I wanted to find the missing screws on Internet.

The service manual indicates: Screw, Binding head P-Tite; M3x28.

Ok for M3x28 (Metric, 3mm diameter, 28mm length), but does P-Tite means?

Well, actually, from https://taptite.com:

B-TITE®, C-TITE®, EP-TITE®, LAMI-TITE®, M-TITE®, MAG-TITE®, MULTI-TITE®, P-TITE®, P-TITE II®, P-TITE III®, PS-TITE®, RS-TITE®,and S-TITE® are registered trademarks licensed by CONTI Fasteners AG and Nitto Seiko, Ltd. These products were developed especially for the Japanese marketplace, and may appear in other countries due to globalization.

The compagny is specialized in making screws for relatively soft material such as plastic and soft metal alloy.
