Daggerz #8 x 1-1/4" Self-Drilling Fiber Cement Board Screw with Wings, Phillips Head - Dagger-Guard Coating, Qty. 5,000
Specifications
When it’s time to attach fiber-cement board, plywood or panel overlays to light-gauge steel, this Daggerz Self-Drilling Fiber Cement Board Screw with Wings and premium Dagger-Ceramic coating delivers speed, precision and durability. The engineered self-drilling point and winged design create a clean clearance hole through the cement board, so the wafer head seats flush and the connection remains tight. With corrosion-resistant coating rated for exterior environments and multiple length and diameter variants available, it’s a go-to for professionals and DIYers who demand reliability in tough assemblies.
Key Features
- Self-Drilling Point: Eliminates the need for pre-drilling when fastening into steel framing.
- Winged Design: Wings bore out a clearance hole through the cement board, preventing board walk-up; they snap off when engaging the steel substrate.
- Wafer Head with Nibs: Broad bearing surface ensures a flush finish, while underhead nibs improve countersinking without damaging the board face.
- Dagger-Ceramic Coating: Corrosion-resistant finish tested to 1,000-hour salt spray performance, making it suitable for exterior or high-humidity interior applications.
- Purpose-Built for Cement-to-Steel: Ideal for applications that require secure fastening of fiber cement board or sheathing to light-gauge steel framing.
Applications
- Attaching fiber cement board or panels to steel studs or track in both residential and commercial framing systems.
- Installing cement backer boards for cladding, siding, and soffit applications.
- Commercial interiors, tenant finishes, soffit framing, or exterior panel support systems.
- Use cases where drilling speed, corrosion resistance, and a low-profile head are essential.
Installation
- Select the correct screw length and diameter for full steel penetration and thread engagement.
- Use a power driver with a #2 Phillips bit. Set the clutch to avoid overdriving into the cement board or steel.
- Drive perpendicular to the surface. The wings will cut a clearance hole through the board and snap off upon engaging the steel.
- Stop driving when the wafer head is flush with the surface — avoid over-torquing or distorting the panel face.
- Ensure steel thickness is appropriate for self-drilling screw performance, and that environmental conditions match the ceramic-coated screw’s corrosion resistance rating.
- Follow manufacturer spacing and fastening patterns to maintain structural integrity and prevent cracking.

Self-Drilling Screws for Fastening Wood to Metal
These self-drilling screws feature winged tips that bore through wood and clear the path before engaging metal, ensuring clean holes and tight connections. Designed to prevent wood splitting and eliminate the need for pre-drilling, they’re ideal for framing, decking, and other wood-to-metal applications where strength and speed matter.
-
Self-Drilling Screws with Seemingly Unlimited Options
Our self-drilling screws come in a wide range of options to tackle everything from metal-to-metal and wood-to-metal fastening to interior framing and exterior cladding. Choose from multiple head styles, drive types, and corrosion-resistant finishes like zinc, galvanized, ceramic-coated, and stainless steel, each built for strength, speed, and long-term performance.
-
The Right Point for Every Project
Different point types pierce various materials. Standard points handle light- to medium-gauge metal, long points tackle thicker steel, self-piercing points work well in wood or thin metal and winged points clear softer layers before drilling harder substrates, ensuring faster, cleaner and secure installations.
