How Can You Use Modified Truss Screws?
Self-tapping, modified truss screws — also known as wafer head, round washer head and k-lathe screws — fit the needs of numerous industries, from woodworking to sheet metal fastening to HVAC.
These screws are self-drilling and self-tapping, which means that you can begin installation without having to create a pilot hole first. This advantage allows for quick work, which is a massive benefit in businesses that require tasks to be finished quickly and efficiently.
Use them for attaching pieces of ductwork in a house’s central air system or to install insulation onto both metal and wood surfaces. You can connect girders and siding to structures, or you could even use them in light metal framing projects with aluminum or another thin-gauge substrate.
The general-purpose approach of this screw design also positions it as a favorable option for furniture and electronics usage, as well as for retrofitting of lighting fixtures and drywall installation.
