Midwest Fasteners Steel Chrometint Oval Washer Head Phillips Tapping Screw
The Midwest Fasteners oval washer head Phillips tapping screw is a steel fastener finished in Chrometint, built to cut its own mating threads into pre-drilled holes in sheet metal, plastic or other thin substrates. This family is available in lengths from 8 x 3/4" through 8 x 2", including 8 x 1-1/4" and 8 x 1-1/2", so installers can match the exact length a job calls for while keeping the same head style, drive and finish across every option. The oval washer head pairs a finished oval profile with an integrated washer collar that spreads clamping load over the work surface, and the Phillips drive keeps bit selection simple for both hand and power-driven installation. Every length in this family shares the same steel body and Chrometint finish, so a shop can standardize on one fastener line for multiple assembly depths.
