Overview

The Minerallac 79234J is a #12-24 x 2-inch self-drilling (TEK) sheet metal screw featuring a hex washer head (HWH) and #5 drill point. This screw is designed for metal-to-metal or metal-to-wood applications, eliminating the need for pre-drilling or separate washers, which simplifies installation and reduces labor time. The zinc-plated (ZP) finish provides corrosion resistance, extending the service life of the screw in industrial environments where exposure to moisture or chemicals is common. The Type-BSD thread type and 24 threads per inch ensure a secure grip and strong hold, making it suitable for high-stress applications. The hex washer head distributes the load evenly, reducing the risk of pull-through in thin materials, which is particularly important in HVAC, electrical, and general construction projects. The screw is compatible with standard hex drivers, ensuring ease of use with common tools. Supplied in a jar, the 79234J is convenient for dispensing and inventory management, making it ideal for professionals who require durable, high-strength fasteners. Its design and features make it a cost-effective solution for attaching ductwork, panels, structural components, and other applications where efficiency and reliability are critical. The #5 drill point allows for quick penetration into metal surfaces, further enhancing installation speed and accuracy.
