    Screws for Joining Sheet Metal to Wood

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Tapping Screws. Screws for Joining Sheet Metal to Wood.
    Secure thin metal roofing and siding panels to wooden framing in post-frame buildings. These screws have a sharp tip to pierce metal and deep, widely spaced threads to grip wood. They resist pullout, even in high winds or under heavy vibration. The sealing washer keeps out water to prevent leaks.
    Length is measured from under the head.
    Corrosion-Resistant-Coated Steel—The coating has been tested to extreme standards, including 1,000 hours of salt spray resistance, to hold up in wet and outdoor environments.

    Sealing Steel Hex Head Screws with Washer for Sheet Metal

    Image of Product. Back orientation. Tapping Screws. Sealing Steel Hex Head Screws with Washer for Sheet Metal.
    Create a tight seal to prevent leaks through sheet metal panels. These screws have a rubber-bonded washer to keep out fluids and distribute pressure. The hex head gives you a firm, high-torque grip with a nutdriver or socket. A pointed tip starts a hole in sheet metal up to 0.025" thick, but for thicker material you’ll need to drill first.
    Length is measured from under the head.
    Zinc-Plated Steel—A common choice for areas with occasional exposure to moisture.

    These corrosion-resistant screws prevent leaks through sheet metal panels. Their rubber-bonded washer seals out fluids and distributes pressure. The hex head gives you a firm, high-torque grip with a nutdriver or socket. A pointed tip starts a hole in sheet metal up to 0.025" thick, but for thicker material you’ll need to drill first.
    Length is measured from under the head.
    18-8 Stainless Steel—The choice for wet and outdoor environments, these screws resist rust. However, they won't hold up to the harsh chemicals that 316 stainless steel can.

    Steel Phillips Rounded Head Screws with Washer for Sheet Metal

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Tapping Screws. Steel Phillips Rounded Head Screws with Washer for Sheet Metal.
    Prevent sheet metal from bending and create a smooth, finished look. These screws have an attached, free-spinning washer that distributes pressure and covers a wider area than a flange. Their pointed tip starts a hole in sheets up to 0.025" thick, but for thicker material you’ll need to drill first. The Phillips drive handles enough torque to keep drivers from slipping.
    Length is measured from the edge of the head.
    Black-Oxide Steel—Typically chosen for their appearance, these screws have a dark, matte coating for a finished look. They offer minimal corrosion resistance, so they're best for dry environments.
    Black Phosphate-Coated Steel—More corrosion resistant than black-oxide steel, these screws are suitable for environments with some moisture. They have a dark, matte coating for a finished look.
    Chrome-Plated Steel—The brightest finish we offer has a mirror-like appearance that is often used in decorative applications. These screws won't rust in wet and outdoor environments.
