The screw, also called\na type T thread cutting screw, has fine threads and a type 23 point that\ntapers down to a blunt edge and directs chips out of the hole to prevent\nclogging. The large cutting surface is suitable for soft metals and enables\nscrew installation with minimal rotating force. Steel is often used in\napplications where strength is the primary consideration. The zinc plating\noffers corrosion resistance and has a reflective appearance. The flat undercut\nhead has a flat top with an 82-degree cone-shaped bearing surface and is\nundercut to a lower head height for use in shallow countersunk holes. The\nPhillips drive has an x-shaped slot that accepts a Phillips driver and is\ndesigned to allow the driver to slip out of the head to help prevent over-\ntightening and damage to the thread or fastener.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 23 point style has fine threads that taper down to a blunt point with a large cutting surface suitable for soft metal, provides excellent chip clearance, and requires minimal rotating force to install\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\u003eFlat undercut head has a flat top with an 82-degree cone-shaped bearing surface and is undercut for use in shallow countersunk holes\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":43780491509940,"sku":"B00GWYCURO","price":149.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0595\/9906\/1172\/files\/B00GWYCURO.jpg?v=1735287030","url":"https:\/\/auspowers.com\/products\/small-parts-12083pu-steel-thread-cutting-screw-zinc-plated-82-degree-flat-undercut-head-phillips-drive-type-23-12-24-thread-size-1-2-length-pack-of-100","provider":"AusPower Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
