Fast-Driving Performance for Metal and Wood Applications

Self-drilling screws, also commonly referred to as self-tapping screws, TEK screws, or sheet metal screws, are the go-to solution for projects that demand strength, speed, and precision. These fasteners combine a drill bit and thread-cutting action in one, making them ideal for attaching metal to metal or metal to wood without pre-drilling.

Fasteners Plus offers a wide variety of self-drilling screws designed to save time and increase efficiency on the jobsite. Whether you're a contractor building out commercial framing or a DIYer installing metal roofing, we’ve got the right screw for your project, and your environment.

Frequently Asked Questions about Self-Drilling Screws

What are self-drilling screws?
Self-drilling screws are fasteners that feature a drill bit tip, allowing them to drill and tap their own hole in metal or wood without the need for pre-drilling.

What’s the difference between self-drilling and self-tapping screws?
All self-drilling screws are self-tapping, but not all self-tapping screws are self-drilling. Self-drillers have a cutting tip that eliminates the need for a pilot hole. For more detailed information, check out our blog.

Can I use self-drilling screws for metal roofing?
Yes. Look for roofing-specific self-drilling screws that include EPDM washers and coatings for corrosion resistance. We carry a wide variety of metal roofing screws, be sure to find the right ones for your project.

Do I need special tools to install them?
A standard drill or impact driver is all you need. Just be sure not to overtighten, especially when sealing washers are involved.
