Self-Drilling Screws

Write a Review

Product Description

Self-drilling screws are a type of fastener that is designed to drill its own hole as it is screwed into the material. They have a sharp point at the tip which helps to create the hole as it is driven into the material. The threading on these screws also helps to pull the screw into place as it is being driven in.

While purpose-manufactured wood screws are typically the first choice for tasks involving wood, self-drilling screws may also prove useful in certain woodworking scenarios. For instance, self-drilling screws for wood may be used in the construction, repair, or maintenance of sheds and outbuildings, as well as general construction tasks.

Self-drilling screws can be used to fasten sheets of metal to another material, or even to join metal to metal. Not only does this set them apart in comparison to other common screw types, but it also makes them highly useful across a broad spectrum of industries and applications. To name just a few examples, ideal uses could include working with metal roofing, HVAC and ductwork, and steel frames.
