Description
Monster Overview:
Skip the nut and weld—#8-32 Slotted Hex-Washer Thread-Cutting Screws bring bolt-level clamp force in a single, self-tapping fastener. Perfect for electronics chassis, HVAC skins, appliance frames, trailer siding and dense hardwood-to-steel joins. The indented hex head with integral washer spreads load and covers oversize holes, while a broad flat-blade slot offers a backup drive when a socket can’t reach. Heat-treated carbon steel sports a brilliant, RoHS-compliant bright-zinc finish, is hydrogen-relief baked to IFI specs, then factory dry-waxed for smooth, repeatable seating torque. A Type F fluted point taps clean female threads in a pre-drilled or punched hole; chips exit through the flute—no chip cleanup, no backing nut.
Monster Features:
- Dual-Drive Head: Indented #8 hex (5/16″ wrench) plus wide slot—drive with socket, nut-runner or flat screwdriver.
- Washer Head Advantage: Enlarged bearing surface resists pull-through and helps seal joints in thin sheet.
- 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: Corrosion-resistant plating, hydrogen-relief baked, factory dry-waxed for consistent clamp load.
- Material: Heat-treated carbon steel delivers excellent tensile & shear strength.
- Bulk Packaging: Factory-sealed master cartons—ideal for OEM fabrication, trailer shops & metal-working production lines.
