Self-drilling screws, also known as “drill screws,” “self-drilling screws,” or “dovetail screws,” are classified into different types based on their application, material, and shape.

A standard 6mm self-drilling screw has a flatness of 9.38mm or 9.8mm. A hexagonal self-drilling screw with dimensions 4.5*14*25 means the screw size is 4.5mm, the screw length is 25mm, and the thread length is 14mm.

1. Self-drilling screws, also known as “drill screws,” “self-drilling screws,” or “dovetail screws,” are classified into different types based on their application, material, and shape.

2. Based on material, they can be divided into: 1022A steel, 410 stainless steel, and 304 stainless steel.
