Q: What materials are compatible with the Auveco 1801 Tapping Screw?
A: The 1801 is designed primarily for fastening into sheet metal but can also be used with other materials where a #8 x 1" self-tapping screw is suitable.
Q: Does the zinc plating provide adequate corrosion resistance for outdoor use?
A: Yes, the zinc plating offers a level of corrosion resistance suitable for many applications, including outdoor use. However, for environments with extreme conditions, additional protective measures may be advisable.
Q: Is a pilot hole required for installing these self-tapping screws?
A: While the self-tapping design allows the screw to create its own threads, drilling a pilot hole can facilitate easier installation and ensure precise alignment, especially in harder materials.
