Self drilling screws drill their own hole and tap their own thread. They are
specially developed for various applications. They provide high poll out strength,
shear strength and maximum thread engagement and positive fastening in both
structural steel and timber constructions. With the help of Self drilling fasteners,
drilling, tapping and fastening jobs are simplified into one. Assembly and on
labor time is greatly reduced by eliminating the 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 old conventional methods.
