Midwest Fasteners Steel Antique Copper Phillips Oval Head Tapping Screw

Midwest Fasteners Steel Antique Copper Phillips Oval Head Tapping Screw

The Midwest Fasteners Steel Antique Copper Phillips Oval Head Tapping Screw is a steel self-tapping fastener finished in an antique copper coating and configured with a Phillips oval head drive, available across a size range from 6 x 5/8" up to 8 x 3/4". This combination makes it a practical choice anywhere a self-tapping fastener needs to blend into decorative or antiqued hardware rather than stand out with a bright zinc or plain steel finish. The oval head gives a finished, slightly raised profile compared to a flat head, while the Phillips drive allows quick, consistent installation with a standard cross-point driver or bit. As a tapping screw, it is designed to cut its own mating threads into pre-drilled holes in sheet metal, wood, or similar base materials, which speeds up assembly work where a separate nut or pre-tapped hole is not practical. Across the full 6 x 5/8" to 8 x 3/4" size range, this family keeps a consistent steel construction, antique copper finish, and Phillips oval head configuration.

Key Features

• Size Range: Available from 6 x 5/8" up to 8 x 3/4" to suit a variety of decorative hardware and light assembly needs.
• Material & Finish: Steel construction with an Antique Copper finish for a decorative, non-bright appearance on exposed fastener locations.
• Head & Drive: Phillips oval head configuration gives a finished, slightly domed look while accepting a standard Phillips driver for fast installation.
• Product Type: Tapping screw designed to cut its own mating threads into the base material as it is driven, reducing the need for pre-tapped holes.
• Drive Type: Phillips cross-point drive for broad compatibility with common driver bits and screwdrivers found on most jobsites and in most shops.
• Finish Benefit: The antique copper coating suits furniture hardware, cabinetry, lighting fixtures, and other applications where a coordinated decorative finish matters as much as function.
