Key Features and Benefits of Screws for Metal Sheets

These self-tapping screws combine many significant benefits, such as the following:

Material Strength: Our sheet metal screws are made from strong materials, typically stainless steel 18-8 or stainless steel 316. They provide the necessary strength to penetrate and fasten sheet metal securely.
Corrosion Resistance: Many sheet metal screws, especially those made from stainless steel, offer excellent corrosion resistance. As a result, they are suitable for use in harsh environments, such as outdoor applications involving exposure to moisture.
Easy Installation: The self-tapping feature makes installation easier, as there is no need for pre-drilled holes, reducing labor time and effort.
Versatility: These fasteners can have many applications. You can use our sheet metal screws in wood, plastic, or aluminum, for example.
High Load Capacity: Sheet metal screws can withstand high pressure and weight, providing reliable and stable fastening.

FAQ

How do I choose the correct screw length?

As a general rule, the screw should penetrate the material by at least 1.5 times the thickness of the top sheet. Consider the combined thickness of the materials being joined, and any required clearance.

Can I use sheet metal screws in wood?

Yes, it is possible to use sheet metal screws in wood. However, dedicated wood screws may offer better holding power in thicker or denser wood.

What sheet metal screw types do you offer?

At Fastenere, you can order multiple types of sheet metal screws. There are, for example, oval head screws used in applications where a combination of a flush or near-flush finish and a decorative appearance is necessary. Also, we have pan head screws with a large bearing surface, which helps to distribute the clamping force evenly and prevent damage to the material. Browse through our complete offer to find out more!
