Self drilling screw, Application : Self drilling Screws

Self Prilling Fasteners are available in a choice of finishes that comply with both Australian (As3566) and international standards, to provide maximum endurance over a wide range of climate and environmental conditions.  

self -drilling screws are specifically developed for various applications. They provide high pullout strength, shear strength and maximum thread engagement and positive fastening in both structural steel and timber constructions.

Assembly and on-site labour time is greatly reduced by eliminating and task of alignment or the need to pre-drill holes. Fastening operations in roofing, cladding and assembly can be completed in less time, often halving the time of the old conventional method.

Utilisation of unskilled labour is another benefit due to the engineering design of this type of transfer, as selection of drill size and various tools are eliminated. The tradesman will also realise the benefits of speed and ease of installation

As the fastening is reduced to one operation, alignment problems are eliminated. It is more economical to use self-drilling screws than to drill, tap and fasten or nut and bolt in the traditional.
