What are TEK-3 Screws Used For?
TEK-3 screws are a multifunctional fastener and can also be referred to as self-drilling screws. As the screws are designed to drill their own pilot holes, TEK-3 screws can be utilized on a variety of applications. Although the exact load capacity depends on several factors, TEK-3 screws are incredibly durable when used in heavy-duty projects. The high-corrosion resistance makes TEK-3 screws ideal for exterior structures and other outdoor projects including those that involve sheet metal and fastening into structural steel components. TEK-3 screws are also frequently used in the electrical industry and other service jobs where metal to metal or wood to wood fastening is required.
