Type F Thread-Cutting Screws
What They Are and Why Use Them?
A Type F point is a thread-cutting screw designed specifically for wood-to-metal and metal-to-metal applications. Unlike self-drilling screws that have a drill tip, Type F screws require a pre-drilled hole before installation. Once inserted, the cutting edges of the screw create their own threads as they engage with the material.
Advantages of Type F Screws
The cutting edges on the tip allow the screw to form threads in thin metal, aluminum, and steel structures.Ideal for attaching wood planks to metal trailer frames or similar wood-to-metal fastening applications. Stronger Holding Power
Since these screws cut their own threads, they provide a tighter grip and more secure fastening than traditional screws.Prevents loosening over time, making them ideal for trailer decking, where vibration and movement are common.
