What do you mean by damaging? They dont have Threads, if you mean that.

That is as far as the screw goes without hitting the radiator fins below the hole given

You have to use silicon washer on the screw head side.

Please please please do not push the screws into the rad, you are going to break it. You may be using the wrong screws, perhaps you have slimmer fans than intended. You can either use washers to make up the difference, or you can use smaller screws and not go through the top holes in the fan.

Ya. He shouldnt listen to the Perosn who said its fine. Looks like who ever said that, want him to damage it.
