Description

Monster Overview:
Swap nuts-and-bolts for one-piece speed. These #8-32 Indented-Hex Thread-Cutting Screws clamp like bolts yet tap their own female threads—ideal for HVAC chassis, appliance panels, electronics enclosures, trailer skins and hardwood-to-steel assemblies. Drive them with a socket or nut-runner: the external hex head delivers rapid, high-torque installation. Heat-treated carbon steel carries a brilliant bright-zinc electro-plate, is hydrogen-relief baked to IFI spec, then factory dry-waxed for smooth, repeatable seating torque. The Type F fluted point taps clean internal threads in a pre-drilled or punched hole; chips clear through the flute—no backing nut, no chip clean-up.
Monster Features:
- High-Torque Drive: Unslotted #8 indented-hex head (5/16″ wrench size) resists strip-out and speeds production.
- Type F Cutting Point: UNF machine thread with fluted slot—forms threads in 0.030–0.125″ steel sheet or dense hardwood; chips exit cleanly.
- Bright-Zinc Finish: RoHS-compliant plating, hydrogen-relief baked, topped with factory dry-wax for consistent clamp load.
- Material: Heat-treated carbon steel for excellent tensile & shear strength.
- Bulk Packaging: Sealed master cartons—perfect for OEM fabrication, trailer builders & metal-shop production lines.
