The use of self-drilling screws is becoming increasingly widespread in everyday home renovations and large-scale industrial manufacturing. So, what are the specific applications of self-drilling screws? How can we quickly determine whether or not we should use them? Let Hebei Wotu Fastener Manufacturing Co., Ltd. show you!

The tail of a self-drilling screw is shaped like a drill tip or a pointed tip. Without auxiliary processing, self-drilling screws can directly drill, tap, and tighten into the material being installed or the base material, significantly saving construction time. Compared to ordinary screws, self-drilling screws have higher pull-out strength and holding power, and will not loosen even after long-term assembly. They are safe to use, and the drilling and tapping process is simple and can be completed in one go. The primary use of self-drilling screws is as a type of wood screw, mainly used for fixing corrugated steel sheets on steel structures, and also for fixing thin sheets in simple buildings. It cannot be used for metal-to-metal fastening.

Wotu Fasteners Co., Ltd., a manufacturer of self-drilling screws, uses imported and domestically sourced raw materials from large steel mills. Its production equipment is all from Taiwan, and it possesses complete testing processes and equipment. Operating under a modern enterprise system, it strictly adheres to the ISO9001:2015 quality management system. The company uses “Wotu” as its registered trademark.
