The type F point is suitable for heavy\ngauge sheet metal, aluminum, cast iron, brass, and plastic. The screw has\nmachine screw threads that taper down to a blunt point with multiple cutting\nedges and chip cavities. Steel is often used in applications where strength is\nthe primary consideration. The zinc plating offers corrosion resistance and\nhas a reflective appearance. The hex washer head has six flat sides that a\nwrench can grip to turn from the side, enabling use when there is no space\nabove the head for a screwdriver. The flange acts like a washer to increase\nthe fastener's bearing surface and distribute the clamping force over a larger\narea, providing grip and reducing damage to mating surfaces. The slotted drive\nhas a linear slot for use with a flat-blade driver.Thread cutting and thread\nrolling screws, two types of self-tapping screws, are threaded fasteners that\ncreate a mating thread in the wall of a hole. The two screws differ from each\nother in the way that they create the threads. Thread cutting screws cut the\nwall of the hole to create the thread, creating material chips that need to be\ncleared away from the hole to prevent clogging. Thread rolling screws, also\ncalled thread forming screws, do not remove material but instead press against\nthe wall of the hole to displace the 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\u003eSteel is often used in applications where strength is the primary consideration\u003c\/li\u003e\n         \u003cli\u003eZinc plating resists corrosion and has a reflective appearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n         \u003cli\u003eHex washer head has a flange for additional grip with the mating surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n         \u003cli\u003eSlotted drive has a linear slot for use with a flat-blade driver\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Small Parts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43977498263732,"sku":"B00GX0U8EE","price":108.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0595\/9906\/1172\/files\/B00GX0U8EE.jpg?v=1775761611","url":"https:\/\/auspowers.com\/products\/small-parts-0808fsw-steel-thread-cutting-screw-zinc-plated-finish-hex-washer-head-slotted-drive-type-f-8-32-thread-size-1-2-length-pack-of-100","provider":"AusPower Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
