slotted, countersunk (machine) screw


Explanation:
Depending on the context, this might be a machine screw (sounds like it, I think), but could also be any other kind os screw, like a woodscrew, for example.

Although I would usually EXPECT this to be flat-headed, note that there is nothing implicit in the given term that says it HAS to be; one has to simply assume that from the absence of any other specification
