Features & Applications

Hexagon head screws with self-drilling point for general fastening

applications to light steel. Coarse thread and TEK 3 point suitable for

steel thicknesses from 1.2 – 3.5mm. Tough three-stage zinc-ceramic

coating for superior corrosion resistance.

Installation

1. Screws should be installed using a Tek screwdriver or cordless

drill with adequate power and a drilling speed of between 1500

– 2500 rpm. (IMPORTANT - Impact screwdrivers will damage

the threads and must not be used)

2. Use a 5/16" socket to install the screw perpendicularly into the

steel maintaining steady pressure without forcing the tool.

3. Stop inserting the screw as soon as the flange makes contact

with the surface. Overtightening the screw is liable to damage

the thread particularly in thin steel
