Features

Self-tapping thread design: Forms its own screw path in thin sheet metal during installation, eliminating the need for pre-drilling and shortening assembly time.

Flat head, countersunk profile: Sits flush with the workpiece surface to minimize protrusion and reduce snag risk in moving assemblies.

Slotted drive: Compatible with common screwdrivers and low-profile bit tooling, reducing cam-out under typical torque.

Corrosion resistance: Zinc plating with bake-on coating provides durable protection against corrosion in indoor environments and light-duty applications.

Material and seating characteristics: Steel body offers adequate strength for light to medium sheet metal thicknesses; appropriate for enclosure and panel mounting.

Ideal use cases: Electrical enclosures, control panels, HVAC sheet metal, metal cabinetry, and light automotive trim components.

Installation guidance: Select length to accommodate combined material thickness with a proper bite; use appropriate torque to avoid over-tightening and thread stripping.
