Evolution Self Drilling Tek Screw - Heavy Section - No Washer (Box of 100)
Hexagon head self-drilling tek screws for heavy-section steel are specifically designed for fastening and securing heavy-gauge or thick steel components without the need for pre-drilling or separate washers. These self-drilling screws have a unique drill point at the tip, which allows them to cut through the steel material as they are being screwed in. The absence of washers simplifies the installation process and reduces the number of components needed.
