Choosing the Right Metal-to-Metal Screw
When selecting metal-to-metal self-drilling screws, consider:
- Steel Thickness (Gauge): Use short drill points for light-gauge studs and long drill points for heavy structural steel.
- Head Style: Hex washer heads for structural strength, or low-profile wafer/pancake heads for panel work.
- Corrosion Resistance: Select coated or stainless steel screws for outdoor, coastal, or high-moisture environments.
- Screw Length & Diameter: Ensure proper penetration into both layers of steel for maximum holding power.
