Heavy Duty 18 By 8 Stainless Steel Thread Cutting Screw With Type F Point, Hex Washer Head, Plain Finish, 10 By 32 Thread Size, 5/8 Inch Length, Pack Of 25, Ideal For Heavy Gauge Sheet Metal, Aluminum, Brass, Plastic And Cast Iron
✔️ 18-8 stainless, Type F point, hex washer head, 5/8 in length, 10-32 thread
These heavy-duty screws are designed to tap threads in thick metal walls without pre-drilled holes, making them ideal for heavy gauge sheet metal, aluminum, brass, plastic, and cast iron. The 18-8 stainless steel provides solid corrosion resistance and strength in tough environments. The plain finish keeps things simple and ensures good mating with bare metal surfaces. The hex washer head includes a flange to distribute clamping force over a larger area, reducing surface damage when tightening.

💡 What is a thread cutting screw used for in metal fabrication projects?
Thread cutting screws are handy fasteners that create mating threads as you drive them into metal, simplifying assembly of metal parts.
- Thread cutting screws form or cut threads in heavy gauge sheet metal, aluminum, cast iron, brass, and plastic
- Type F point helps start threads cleanly in thick walls with less predrilling
- 18-8 stainless steel provides corrosion resistance and strength in harsh environments
- Hex washer head with flange distributes clamping load to protect mating surfaces
