Steel Thread-Forming Screws for Thin Plastic
These steel screws are zinc plated to resist corrosion in wet environments. They have a round shank and more sharply angled threads than other thread-forming screws, so they require less driving torque and reduce the risk of cracking thin plastic. A Torx drive allows you to apply extra force with less slippage or damage to the recess. Length is measured from under the head.
Style A screws are also known as Delta PT® screws.
Style B screws have a flange that distributes holding pressure and reduces the risk of crushing thin plastic. They are comparable to EJOT PT screws.

Stainless Steel Thread-Forming Screws for Thin Plastic
18-8 stainless steel screws have good chemical resistance and may be mildly magnetic. They have a round shank and more sharply angled threads than other thread-forming screws, so they require less driving torque and reduce the risk of cracking thin plastic. A Torx drive allows you to apply extra force with less slippage or damage to the recess.
Pan head screws are also known as Delta PT® screws. Length is measured from under the head.
Round head screws have a flange under the head that distributes holding pressure and reduces the risk of crushing thin plastic. They’re comparable to EJOT PT screws. Length is measured from under the flange.
