Hex Head Self-Drilling Screws
Product Overview
This product is a steel-wood dual-purpose self-drilling screw compliant with the Australian AS3566.2 standard, specification 12-11×40, equipped with a Type17 double-cutting drill point, made of carbon steel substrate with heat treatment, and featuring a Class3 three-layer composite anti-corrosion coating on the surface. The unique reduced-tip thread structure integrates drilling, tapping, and locking in one step, making it a dedicated fastener for Australian construction and outdoor steel-wood engineering, suitable for power socket batch installation.
Product Applications
Fixing of color steel roofing/wall panels to wooden purlins and treated wood keels in workshops and warehouses;
Composite splicing and assembly of light steel timber frames, light steel keels, and wooden battens;
Fastening of metal trim strips for courtyard treated wood decks and fences;
Export-oriented prefabricated light steel timber houses and light steel structure projects in Australia;
Installation of outdoor metal-wood composite panels and decorative boards.
Product Features
Hexagon flange head: Compatible with socket tools, providing high torque without slipping; the flange surface, combined with a waterproof washer, prevents leakage in roofing installation and minimises damage to colour steel sheets.
Reduced-tip thread design: Transition with a smaller diameter at the tip reduces cracking when driving into solid wood, ensures smooth chip evacuation and low driving resistance, and delivers higher pull-out strength after the steel-wood connection.
Type 11 dedicated drill point: Capable of penetrating 0.4–3mm thin steel sheets in one go while simultaneously tapping into wood, making it universal for steel and wood and reducing inventory variety.
Australian Type 3 long-lasting anti-corrosion: Three-layer composite weather-resistant coating, resistant to UV, acid rain, and mild salt spray, ensuring long-term outdoor use in inland areas without rusting.
High-strength substrate: Overall quenching treatment provides a wear-resistant drill point that resists chipping and a shank with good toughness, suitable for high-frequency on-site installation.
