Hex Head Self-Tapping Screws
Product Overview
This product is a US-standard external hexagon flange sharp-point self-tapping screw, specification 10–24×25. Manufactured from high-quality carbon steel through precision forging, the surface is treated with a CL3 zinc-aluminum composite anti-corrosion coating. The screw integrates an external hex drive head, an integrated flange washer, and a sharp-point self-tapping thread profile. With a #10 nominal diameter and coarse threads of 24 threads per inch, and an overall length of 25mm, it requires no matching nuts or washers and can be directly driven into wood, plastic, and thin metal substrates to form mating internal threads. It serves as a versatile fastening component for import/export equipment, outdoor structures, and sheet metal assembly, balancing installation efficiency with long-lasting corrosion protection.
Product Applications
Industrial Equipment: Fixing of import/export electrical control cabinets, sheet metal enclosures, and plastic instrument housings.
Outdoor Building Materials: Photovoltaic bracket accessories, aluminum alloy doors and windows, HVAC ducts, timber framing, and decorative sheet metal panels.
Transportation and Agricultural Machinery: Assembly of automotive interior sheet metal, small agricultural machinery housings, and plastic components.
Home Appliances and Furniture: Fastening for export-oriented American-style furniture, various appliance plastic casings, and wood panel splicing.
Product Features
Integrated Flange Hex Head: Compatible with socket wrenches, providing high torque resistance without slipping; the built-in flange increases the load-bearing surface to prevent crushing of thin sheets, eliminates the need for separate washers, and offers improved sealing.
10–24 Coarse Thread with Sharp Point: The sharp tip enables smooth positioning; the coarse threads ensure firm engagement with reduced risk of stripping, delivering high tapping efficiency.
Heat-Treated Carbon Steel Substrate: Meets mechanical strength requirements, offers excellent cost-effectiveness, and is ideal for bulk procurement.
CL3 Zinc-Aluminum Anti-Corrosion Coating: Free from hydrogen embrittlement risk; the thin coating does not clog threads; salt spray corrosion resistance outperforms ordinary zinc plating, suitable for both indoor humid environments and outdoor applications.
US-Standard Compatibility: The 10–24 thread is a globally recognized coarse thread specification, meeting the assembly requirements for imported equipment and export-oriented products.
