Hex Head Thread-Forming Screws for Metal
External Hex
External Hex/Slotted
These screws have a hex head for a secure grip with a wrench and a flange to reduce the risk of crushing thin metal. Also known as Swageform screws, threads at the tip are designed to grab material for a fast start with low torque in a wide range of materials. All are zinc-plated steel to resist corrosion in wet environments. Length is measured from under the flange.

Metric Thread-Forming Screws for Soft Metal
These screws have a triangular shank that presses tightly as it forms threads, so screws resist loosening in soft metals such as brass, aluminum, and copper. They’re also known as Taptite® screws. Made from steel, they're zinc-plated steel to resist corrosion in wet environments. Length is measured from under the head.
Screws that meet DIN 7500 adhere to international standards for thread-forming screw dimensions. The letter at the end of the standard refers to the screw’s drive type—C for Phillips and D for hex head.

Hex Head Blunt Screws for Sheet Metal
External Hex
External Hex/Slotted
These screws have a hex head for a secure grip with a wrench and a flange to reduce the risk of crushing thin metal. They require a drilled hole to install. Made from steel, they have a zinc plating to resist corrosion in wet environments. Often referred to as Type B thread-forming screws, they require a drilled hole and are typically used in 0.050"-0.200" material. Length is measured from under the flange. Head height includes the flange.
