The front end of Galvanized Self Drilling Screws features a specially designed drill bit that can easily penetrate thin steel plates, corrugated steel sheets, aluminum profiles, and non-ferrous metals. The threaded tail provides high clamping force. The surface is typically treated with cold galvanizing or hot-dip galvanizing to provide basic to good rust protection.

FAQ
Q: What torque is required for self-drilling screws? Do I need a special electric drill?
A: We recommend using medium speed with high torque settings for optimal installation results.
Q: Which type of self-drilling screw is suitable for stainless steel plates?
A: For stainless steel plates, we recommend self-drilling screws made from 410 or 304 stainless steel. Their specially designed drill points can effectively penetrate hard stainless steel materials.
