Self-Drilling Screw, #8 x 1/2 in, Plain Stainless Steel Phillips Drive, 50 PK

The MIDWEST FASTENER - 53709 is a self-drilling screw, intended for use in materials, potentially eliminating the need for pre-drilled holes. This type of fastener is commonly used in industrial and commercial settings such as metal fabrication, construction, and assembly. Made from stainless steel with a plain finish, these screws are made from stainless steel which is known for its strength and corrosion resistance properties. Suitability with metal depends on specific conditions.

• Drive: The Phillips drive design requires a Phillips head tool for installation or removal.
• Fastener Length: With a length of 1/2 inch, it determines how deeply it can penetrate and secure materials together.
• Finish: The plain finish is intended to contribute towards durability and corrosion resistance. It may also aid in improving grip or reducing friction during installation, depending on usage conditions.
• Screw Size: #8 screw size refers to its width and thread count per inch. The fit into materials can vary based on individual circumstances.
• System of Measurement: Uses an Inch (imperial) system to determine the size and length of the screws.
• Thread Style: Fully threaded style refers to threads running along the entire length of the screw. The degree of hold on material surfaces can depend upon various factors.
• Tip Type: Drilling tip is designed for self-drilling applications; however, whether pre-drilled holes are needed can depend upon individual circumstances
