Buying guide

Applies to all self-tapping screws.

Pilot hole

For sheet metal, drill a pilot of about 85 % of the minor thread diameter. Too small and the screw strips; too large and it will not hold.

Head style

Pan heads are general purpose; modified truss heads have a low, wide bearing face for fixing sheet to studs; hex washer heads take high torque from a nut setter.

Material

Case-hardened carbon steel taps into steel; A2 stainless taps aluminium and soft materials; SS410 combines hardness with moderate corrosion resistance.

Questions about this product

What is the difference between ST and M sizes?

ST sizes (ST3.5, ST4.2…) are tapping-screw threads per ISO 1478. M sizes are machine threads and need a tapped hole or nut.

Can stainless self-tapping screws tap steel?

A2 stainless is softer than hardened steel, so it works only in thin or soft sheet. Use SS410 or bi-metal screws for steel.

Do you offer head marking?

Yes, embossed or recessed head marks are available on most head styles with a one-off tooling charge.
