The type F point is\nsuitable for heavy gauge sheet metal, aluminum, cast iron, brass, and plastic.\nThe screw has machine screw threads that taper down to a blunt point with\nmultiple cutting edges and chip cavities. The 18-8 stainless steel material\nprovides strength and offers good corrosion resistance in many environments.\nThe material may be slightly magnetic. The pan head has a flat top and short\nvertical sides with a rounded top edge. The Phillips drive has an x-shaped\nslot that accepts a Phillips driver and is designed to allow the driver to\nslip out of the head to help prevent over-tightening and damage to the thread\nor fastener.Thread cutting and thread rolling screws, two types of self-\ntapping screws, are threaded fasteners that create a mating thread in the wall\nof a hole. The two screws differ from each other in the way that they create\nthe threads. Thread cutting screws cut the wall of the hole to create the\nthread, creating material chips that need to be cleared away from the hole to\nprevent clogging. Thread rolling screws, also called thread forming screws, do\nnot remove material but instead press against the wall of the hole to displace\nthe material and form the threads.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul class=\"a\"\u003e\n         \u003cli\u003eThread cutting screw with type F point has machine screw threads that taper down to a blunt edge and is suitable for heavy gauge sheet metal, aluminum, cast iron, brass, and plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n         \u003cli\u003e18-8 stainless steel provides good corrosion resistance and strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n         \u003cli\u003ePlain surface has no finish or coating\u003c\/li\u003e\n         \u003cli\u003ePan head has a flat top and short vertical sides with a rounded top edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n         \u003cli\u003ePhillips drive has an x-shaped slot that accepts a Phillips driver and is designed to prevent over-tightening\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Small Parts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43806973657268,"sku":"B00GX0592A","price":99.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0595\/9906\/1172\/files\/B00GX0592A.jpg?v=1737440754","url":"https:\/\/auspowers.com\/products\/small-parts-0206fpp188-18-8-stainless-steel-thread-cutting-screw-plain-finish-pan-head-phillips-drive-type-f-2-56-thread-size-3-8-length-pack-of-100","provider":"AusPower Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
