Carbon Steel Self-Drilling Screws
Product Overview
The Phillips Wafer Head Self-Drilling Screw (Model 10-16x16-55 Z/Y) is a self-drilling and self-tapping fastener designed for thin metal sheet connections. The product uses a #10 American thread specification (approx. 4.8mm diameter, 16 threads per inch fine thread design) and offers various lengths from 16mm to 55mm. The surface is treated with a yellow/color zinc (Z/Y) anti-rust coating, balancing durability with cost-effectiveness. It integrates drilling, tapping, and fastening into one, allowing direct penetration and fixation of metal plates without pre-drilling. It is an efficient and convenient general-purpose fastener for steel structures, light steel projects, and sheet metal installation.
Product Applications
Steel Construction: Fixing color steel tiles in factories, wall profiled steel sheets, and assembly/connection of light steel structures.
Light Steel & Decoration Industry: Connecting metal parts in light steel keel partition walls and ceiling systems; fixing aluminum door/window frames and curtain wall panels.
Electromechanical & Sheet Metal Installation: Assembly of air ducts, electrical conduits, equipment sheet metal, and installation of simple rain sheds and photovoltaic mounts.
General Manufacturing: Rapid fastening of various thin metal sheets and hardware components, replacing traditional self-tapping screws and improving assembly efficiency.
Product Features
Efficient Self-Drilling: Built-in hardened cutting edge allows direct penetration of steel plates ≤6mm, eliminating the need for pre-drilling and significantly improving efficiency.
Wafer Head Prevents Deformation: The large-diameter wafer head distributes pressure evenly, preventing thin plates from collapsing or deforming, resulting in a more stable connection.
Fine Thread Anti-Loosening: The 16-thread fine pitch provides tight engagement, resisting vibration and preventing loosening, suitable for long-term fixation needs.
Rust-Resistant & Durable: Yellow zinc coating provides good anti-rust performance, suitable for indoor and general outdoor environments.
Easy Installation: Standard Phillips recess is compatible with universal power tools; the torque is stable and resists stripping, with a low learning curve.
