Features

Head Style: Serrated Indented Hex Washer Head — provides flush seating with enhanced anti-slip performance on metal surfaces.

Corrosion Resistance: 18/8 stainless steel offers robust resistance to rust and corrosion in moisture-prone environments.

Self Tapping Capability: Type AB thread form cuts into metal during installation, eliminating the need for pre-drilling for typical sheet thickness ranges.

Under-Head Serrations: Serrations bite into the substrate to increase grip, reduce pull-out, and improve vibration resistance.

Drive Compatibility: Slotted drive supports common hand and power tool applications; use appropriate torque to avoid thread stripping on softer metals.

Ideal Use Cases: Exterior enclosures, appliance panels, HVAC ductwork, and other thin-gauge metal assemblies requiring corrosion resistance and reliable fastener performance.
