Overview

The Minerallac Company 79024-2500 is a #10-16 x 1-1/2 inch Hex Washer Head (HWH) Tek Screw, manufactured from steel with a zinc-plated finish. This self-drilling fastener features a Type-BSD thread type with 16 Threads Per Inch (TPI) and a #2 drill point, designed to create its own hole in sheet metal applications, eliminating the need for pre-drilling. The hex washer head provides a 0.309" head width and 0.113" head height, offering increased bearing surface for secure fastening. The screw's #10-16 size indicates a nominal diameter of 0.190" and a thread pitch of 1/16", ensuring compatibility with standard metal framing and ductwork systems. The 1-1/2 inch length allows for penetration through multiple layers of sheet metal while maintaining structural integrity. The zinc plating provides corrosion resistance, making it suitable for indoor and outdoor applications where exposure to moisture or environmental elements is a concern. The Type-BSD thread design ensures efficient drilling and tapping into materials such as galvanized steel, aluminum, and other non-ferrous metals commonly used in HVAC, electrical conduit, and roofing systems. The spaced external threads facilitate quick installation with minimal torque resistance, reducing labor time during assembly. Each unit contains 2,500 screws, packaged for bulk handling and distribution. This fastener is optimized for metal-to-metal connections, including ductwork seams, electrical panel assemblies, and structural steel connections where a flush, low-profile head is required for aesthetic and functional purposes. The combination of the hex washer head and self-drilling tip ensures a secure, vibration-resistant joint without the need for additional washers or sealing components.
