Combination screws for metal are fasteners specifically designed for use on metal framing, steel studs, or other metal-to-metal applications. These screws are arranged in strips or disks, which means they connect together for efficient use with a compatible screwgun or driver.
Here are some of the key features and benefits of Collated Screws for metal:
Thread Design: These screws typically have a specific thread design optimized for fastening to metal surfaces. The threads can be thinner or sharper to make it easier to penetrate the metal without the need to pre-drill holes.
Coating or Plating: Arranged metal screws often have a coating or plating, such as zinc, galvanized, or other corrosion-resistant materials. This helps protect the screws from rust and corrosion when used outdoors or in harsh environments.
Point Type: Screws may have sharp or self-drilling points designed to penetrate metal surfaces without the need for a pilot hole, saving installation time.
Arrangement: Arrangement screws are attached in strips or coils for fast, continuous installation using a compatible screw gun or self-feed screwdriver system. This feature increases efficiency and reduces the need for frequent reloading of screws.
Length and Diameter Variations: These screws are available in various lengths and diameters to accommodate different thicknesses of metal and specific project requirements.
HIGH STRENGTH: Specifically designed for metal applications, alignment screws provide high tensile strength and durability when fastening metal-to-metal, ensuring a safe and secure connection.
Collated Screws are commonly used in construction, particularly in the installation of metal frames, steel studs, drywall tracks, metal roofs, or other metal structures that require a safe and secure fastening method.
Metal framing and construction projects can be completed faster and more efficiently using alignment screws for metal, reducing installation time and increasing productivity on the job site.
