Truss Head Self Tapping Screw features a low profile, wide head design that provides a clean, finished appearance. The screw is designed to tap its own threads as it is driven into pre-drilled holes in materials such as plastic, wood, or thin metal, eliminating the need for a nut or tapped hole. Its unique truss shape head sits nearly flush with the surface of the material, distributing pressure evenly and reducing the risk of damage to the surrounding area. These screws are available in various lengths and materials, including stainless steel and zinc-plated steel, making them suitable for a wide range of applications from DIY projects to industrial uses. Their self-tapping feature makes installation quick and easy, saving time and effort while ensuring a secure fastening.
