Overview

NSI Industries QTEKD1 #8 x 1/2" Hex Head Self-Drilling Screws are precision-engineered fasteners designed for rapid metal-to-metal or metal-to-wood assembly without pre-drilling. These screws combine a swaged drill point with a #2 driver size hex head, enabling direct installation into 22-18 gauge steel or compatible substrates. The zinc chromate finish provides corrosion resistance for indoor and outdoor applications, including HVAC, electrical enclosures, and general construction. Each pack contains 100 screws with a 1/4" head width and 1/2" length, optimized for use with MT208B chucks and standard hex drivers. The swaged point type eliminates the need for separate drill bits, reducing installation time by up to 40% compared to traditional tapping screws. Compatible with #2 Robertson or hex sockets, these screws deliver consistent clamping force with minimal torque loss. Ideal for applications requiring flush-mounted fasteners with high pull-out resistance, such as ductwork, paneling, and machinery frames. The UNSPSC code 31162103 classifies these as self-drilling tapping screws, ensuring compliance with industrial procurement standards.
  • Swaged drill point eliminates pre-drilling in 22-18 gauge steel

  • Zinc chromate finish resists corrosion in indoor/outdoor use
  • 1/2" length x 1/4" head width for flush-mounted applications
