Features

- Unslotted Drive uses an internal hex interface for consistent torque transfer and compatibility with hex drivers, improving repeatability in automated and manual assembly.
- Self tapping thread forms its own mating threads in sheet metal, eliminating the need for pilot holes or nuts and enabling rapid field or production-line assembly for thin to mid gauge materials.
- Finish: Zinc Plated Bake delivers corrosion resistance and durable appearance, extending service life in interior environments and moderate exposure scenarios.
- Use cases Ideal for fastening steel panels, enclosures, control boxes, and metal cabinets where a secure, torque-stable connection is required and pre-drilled pilot holes are standard practice.
