Self Tapping Screws - Pozidrive Flange Head - Type B - BZP
Self-tapping screws, usually referred to as self tappers, are screws for use when fastening to metal or plastic.
Pozidrive flange head self tappers have a lower profile round head – essentially a slightly flattened round head. They are popular in applications where a large clamping area is needed with an obstructive head.
All that is required to insert a self tapper is a pilot or punched hole to introduce the screw. They then form their own thread as the screw is driven into position. Once inserted, self-tapping screws may be removed and re-used.
A BZP or bright zinc plated fastener is one which has a thin coating of zinc added during production. This protective coating adds durability by protecting the product against rust or oxidisation.
