Overview

The Minerallac Company 79020-6 is a pack of 100 self-drilling Tek screws designed for efficient fastening. These screws feature a #10-16 size with a 1-1/4 inch length, constructed from durable steel with a zinc-plated finish for corrosion resistance. The Type-BSD thread type with 16 threads per inch (TPI) ensures secure engagement. Engineered with a #2 drill point, these screws create their own pilot hole, eliminating the need for pre-drilling in materials such as sheet metal, steel, and wood. The hex washer head provides a broad bearing surface, distributing load and preventing pull-through, while the 0.309 inch head width and 0.113 inch head height offer a stable driving platform. Ideal for construction, electrical, and general maintenance applications where speed and reliability are critical. The silver color of the zinc plating provides a clean aesthetic. Each unit contains 100 screws, offering a convenient quantity for various projects.
