Description
Self-drilling and self-tapping screw for screwing directly into sheet metal and metal laminates without a pilot hole.
RECESS
deep to ensure secure matching with the screwdriver. A deep recess, of a perfect shape, enables he same insert to be used for thousands of screwing operations.
THREAD
up to below the head, to allow the gripping of extremely thin sheets.
TIP
DRILLEX® self-drilling tip, which can penetrate thicknesses of up to 5 mm, threading and tightening consecutively.
CARBONITRIDING HEAT TREATMENT

IN PROCESS CONTROLS
The entire manufacturing process is subjected to SPC (Statistical Product Control), which guarantees a constantly high level of quality in time.
The batch number on the labels ensures absolute traceability of all the phases of production and related control/test documents.
DRILLING TEST
all batches are tested with special instruments to determine their drilling rate in the various materials.
- Deep recess to ensure secure matching with the screwdriver.
- The characteristic self-drilling tip of the Drillex® screw, which enables an optimum drilling diameter to be obtained, threading and tightening consecutively up to a thickness of 5 mm.
- Drillex® self-drilling tip: section of the screw that shows the characteristics of the carbonitriding treatment.
- The graph comparing a Drillex® screw with a traditional screw that shows that the SPC process improves the average production quality and, at the same time, the tolerance.
