Button Head Self-Drilling Screws
Enhance Durability with Button Head Self-Drilling Screws
Button Head Self-Drilling Screws offer a robust solution for fastening in metal applications where a combination of strength and aesthetics is required. Their rounded head provides a larger bearing surface, distributing the clamping force evenly and reducing material damage. Ideal for attaching fascia brackets, clips to rafters, and conduit clips to steel, providing a reliable hold in various applications.
Product Features:
- Rounded Head Design: The button head provides a larger bearing surface to distribute force more evenly, reducing the risk of material damage and ensuring a secure fit. These screws have a very low profile and large diameter head with a flat underside. This allows for overlaying of board and plasterboard without affecting seating, making them perfect for a seamless finish.
- Self-Drilling Tip: Designed to penetrate metal quickly and efficiently, these screws eliminate the need for pre-drilling, saving time and labour on installation.
- Versatile Application: Suitable for a wide range of metal fastening tasks, from sheet metal work to automotive repairs and outdoor structures.
- Easy Installation: Designed for ease of installation with a PH2 Phillips screwdriver or PH2 Phillips Driver Bit in a power tool, ensuring a quick and secure fastening.
Specifications:
- Screw Gauges Available: 8g and 10g, accommodating various material thicknesses and project requirements.
- Lengths Available: 12mm, 16mm, 20mm, 25mm, 30mm, and 32mm, offering flexibility for different applications.
- Finishes: Available in both Galvanised and Zinc Yellow finishes, enhancing both the aesthetic appeal and corrosion resistance of the screws.
Use Cases:
- Sheet Metal Work: Exceptional for securing metal sheets with a neat finish.
- Automotive: Suitable for assembly and repair work where strength and aesthetics are crucial.
- Outdoor Structures: Ideal for applications exposed to the elements, offering long-lasting durability.
Finish Style:
- Galvanised Finish: Provides a durable, protective coating of zinc to prevent rust and corrosion, ideal for outdoor or moisture-prone environments.
- Zinc Yellow Finish: Offers not only corrosion resistance but also adds a visually appealing, bright finish to the screws, making them suitable for visible areas where aesthetics are important.
